Hello.

I'm going to upgrade our mail/www-server. It's now running a very old
version of Linux, and on the new server I want to run FreeBSD. My
question is if there is an easy way of moving the user accounts from Linux
to FreeBSD? Can I just copy the password file and home directory? Or is
there some other way to do this? Any other things I should have in mind
when doing this?

TIA
