Hi
I want to tranfer all user/email account from RH72 box to a newly
installed RHFC box, what files and directories do I have to backup and
tranfer so that I will not create the same account to my new box and
creating again their password
The following files must be moved:
/etc/passwd
/etc/group
/etc/shadow
You need to move the users' home directories and their contents (check
the /etc/passwd file for the directories to move).
User mailboxes are in the /var/spool/mail directory, so that directory
and its contents must also be moved.
