Hello to all!  
	I am converting from Linux to FreeBSD to run my server off of, 
and I am having some difficulties with some very simple things.  For the 
most part, I have been able to take care of some compiling issues and 
some porting problems, but there is one thing that still stumps me:  I 
would like to convert nearly 4000 passwd entries in Linux (non-shadow) to 
FreeBSD (shadowed) using the DES package, or whatever would be simplest.  
When I got this machine, the latest snap (951104) was installed into it 
with the DES stuff on.  Now, all I need is a simple way to move all of 
these entries over from one platform to another without having to type 
them all in individually.

Any help would be appreciated!
