I have moved the passwd and pwd.db files , ?do I need to restart the system or what. I havent moved the usr/home/directorys yet, do I have to move them or not what do I need to do to init/rebuild the passwd database, when I use vipw it brings up the old user list. the original system is 2.1.5 the new system is 2.2.6 Thanks in advance -- Gary Landers TEIN Network To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
