We are upgrading a system by installing new verisions on a different box and would like to just copy the users over without resorting to Kerberos or Radius. I take i t that just copying /etc/passwd and /etc/group won't work. Copy /etc/master.passwd and then run pwd_mkdb on it. /etc/group can just be copied over.
