Hello,

I wonder, after a reinstallation, how to restore my
userdatabase (plain Unix, no Kerberos or NIS). That is,
I need master.passwd, passwd and groups, I guess. What
else needs to be backed up for this purpose and - how
to restore it, since just copying back the files isn=B4t
enough, is it ?

Any help or point to documentation would be nice

Regards

Klaus
