Chris, FC1 handles how services log in a little different from RH7.2(I assume it's the same for 7.0). So I would suggest that after you load all of your services that you just cut and paste the portions of the /etc/passwd and /etc/group files that deal with your users. I did this for the groups and it seemed to work just fine. I used a script to recreate my users but I think you should be able to do this for your /etc/passwd as well. Good luck, Doug -----Original Message----- From: tclug-list-bounces at mn-linux.org [mailto:tclug-list-bounces at mn-linux.org]On Behalf Of Christopher Sent: Thursday, April 15, 2004 7:34 AM To: 'TCLUG Mailing List' Subject: [TCLUG] /etc/passwd etc... I am replacing a RH7.0 server with a Fedora C1 server, I was wondering, could I just use scp to copy the Current /etc/passwd /etc/group to the new server?
