I'm migrating mail server to new server; all mail is for virtual users in /var/home/vhosts/%dom.tld%/%user&/Maildir; owned by '5000' as so drwx------ 5 5000 5000
I was looking at activate the new mail server, and, then, rsync the existing Maildirs to 'synchronize' old & new servers; as I'm the only user with shell access, should I just add shell access to user '5000' for the purpose of running rsync, then, remove it? or, what's a proper way to do this copy ? what the proper way to add/remove shell, can I just edit /etc/passwd ? do I need to give user '5000' a name, or can I just use '5000' in rsync ? -- Voytek -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
