Shouldn't be a problem. If you're using the same account names I'd advise you to change the home directory for those accounts, that way you don't have to worry about incompatible config files, or at the very least make a backup of the directories and try both distros out. Another issue that may crop up is the UID and GID, ubuntu uses 1000 for the first account created and fedora uses 500 (can't remember if the GID is 500 on fedora, but you get the idea,) so this may lead to some trouble. If you opt to change the default home direcotry look at man usermod or dig though the system settings gui in your distro. -- Anyhow, good luck, Trent. _______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list [email protected] http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca Mailing List Guidelines (http://clug.ca/ml_guidelines.php) **Please remove these lines when replying
