hi all i'm planning to reinstall my fedora server. i'm now running fc1 on this server and i'm gonna delete that installation and install fc3. i have taken backup of all important config files like httpd.conf, vsftpd.conf etc. i have also backed up all user data in /home to a tar.bz2 file. the only thing i miss is the user accounts... if i bakup /etc/passwd, /etc/shadow, /etc/group, /etc/gshadow and after installing fc3 copies these files to the new server will i then have all the users (with their passwords) on the new server? i will also restore the tar.bz2 file including all the user data. something tells me that this won't work since i use md5 encrypted passwords (shadow)... øyvind
