We purchased a dual PIII 500 machine with scsi to replace it and we also decided we would try and convert over from RedHat Linux to FreeBSD. One of the issues which we have encounted is how do we convert the password file over? We are using md5 to encrypt the passwords on the linux system. Anyone got a good solution to move these users over without having to ask them to re-enter their password all over again? from, Matthew Enger menger@kgv.edu.hk ------------------------------------------------------------- King George V School, Hong Kong - http://www.kgv.edu.hk/ Domain Host Services - http://www.dhs.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
