| 1 | I have to move my SAMBA PDC to new hardware. SAMBA uses |
| 2 | /etc/passwd along with its own user database. |

| 4 | Can I copy /etc/passwd from the old server to the new or |
| 5 | do I have to create a new /etc/passwd matching the user |
| 6 | info? I believe I need to move /etc/group and /etc/shadow |
| 7 | too. Is there such a thing and a shadow group? |
| 8 | |
| 9 | What about root on the new server? Will it have problems |
| 10 | if a new /etc/passwd is dropped in on it? |
