[vchkpw] How do I transfer a mail domain safely to another system...

2002-11-02 Thread Taylor Dondich
I am currently running a server with multiple services on it, but mail 
is becoming such a burden that it must have its own machine.  I am 
running qmail w/ vpopmail with the default authentication database (cdb 
I believe?).  I have about 20 domains being serviced on this machine and 
I want to slowly transfer the domains to a dedicated mail server.  What 
would be the easiest way to transfer the domains over while still 
attempting to retain password information?

well, 

I suggest you should think about the LDAP way..
BECAUSE that is exactly the point why you should switch to LDAP.

You could have 10 or even more servers sharing the same
LDAP backend.

I know there are people thinking in a different way, but for __me__
LDAP is the future with witch you can avoid such problems by default.

So think about it
