I would like to know what would be the best or most proper method for migrating a user database from flat files /etc/passwd etc on a Redhat System to a newly set up'ed gentoo box.
Do I just copy and paste the relevent details into the Gentoo Box, (which most likely will work after I take into account the uid starts difference (1000 on gentoo and 500 on redhat). Then there's also the smbpasswd file. What would be the best way to do this? -- Ow Mun Heng Gentoo/Linux on DELL D600 1.4Ghz 1.5GB RAM 98% Microsoft(tm) Free!!
