I am now working for an ISP-like institution. There is a machine here, running Linux (RedHat 4.2, I think), which has all user accounts and e-mail services, and I want to upgrade it to FreeBSD (the machine hangs and crashes frequently). The only problem I have found is that password files are NOT compatible between the two OS's... Is there any way to transparently migrate all users to the new system? Thanks in advance!
