We are currently in the process of migrating our webserver to a better machine. What is the best way to move the users from the old machine to the new machine? Is simply copying over the passwd and master.passwd file's enough? Obviously I'd have to check home directories and shells. Both machines are running FreeBSD. The old machine is running 2.2.6-RELEASE, the newer one is running 3.3-RELEASE. Thanks, Jeff Tolley - jeff@comnetcom.net Senior Systems Adminstrator Com Net Communication Systems, Inc.
