John et al -

I know just enough about Linux to just keep the basics running, so 
excuse the fundamental nature of this question:

How are the passwords handled for all of those /home dirs?  Or do you do 
a manual copy of each user (and I do not have a list of the passwords), 
or did you copy the password file (after combining the shadow password 
file with it)?
