Hi,
I'm planning to replace a samba-server acting as PDC now running
Suse9.3. For this I need to migrate all users, retaining their UID and
GID and of course the passwords. Is there a safe, fast way to do this ?
The home directories will be made first (restore from backup).
Then I was thinking of copying /etc/passwd, /etc/shadow and /etc/group
from the old machine to temporary files on the new machine and editing
/etc/passwd, /etc/shadow end /etc/group of the new machine to copy new
users from the old files.
The rest is following "Samba by example".
And suggestions and opinions are welcome.
