Copy users between trusted workstations

Juan Luis Morcillo — Fri, 28 Feb 2003 10:21:06 GMT

Hi!

I have two 11i workstations on trusted mode, and I want to "copy" all users between system A to B (I do not need to keep them synchronized later).
I was wondering if just copying /etc/passwd and /tbc directory should be enough.
Has anyone done it before?

Yeah, did it exactly this way without problems.

You might consider not to copy accounts like root etc.

Rainer
