I read that and didn't really understand it. I don't have any users,
except in Users Admin.

There is a /home and its empty. I've tried both ls -l and MC.

Nope. There is no other home. At least, I cannot find it...

The funny part is this: I did a clone (Ghost) and restored on another
(almost identical) computer. Then I upgraded to 2007. Everything seemed
to work as it should, therefore I upgraded the production machine (this
is only doing mail). Had some trouble with the video card (Radeon 9200
SE) so I changed that to a Rage IIC. After that, all worked fine, until
I fount the lack of accounts... On the test machine, all accounts are
present, after the upgrade! 

Question: Ho do I copy them from te test machine to the production
machine?
