We have ran BSDI for some time as a DNS/WEB/NEWS server. The question I have is, what can I do to move our passwd data to BSDI from Linux? I am under the assumtion the two OS's do the password encryption differently. And is there an easy<G> way to get all the user directories created? The Linux vs. BSDI home directories are not the same as far as contents so I can't just tar them and move them over. norm@snowhill.com
