/etc/passwd /etc/shadow /etc/group /etc/gshadow
but UIDGID's may conflict so don't just copy stuff over. You'll prolly also need to create /home/* directories. An easy way to do this would be tu run /etc/passwd and group through something like awk that puts out data to groupadd/useradd.
This basically one of the reasons why SuSE Linux has so many users installed by default. If you add these users dynamically when you need them, you run into trouble.
If all machines where you want to copy the files are SuSE distributions, you should be safe.
I copied the files to the second machine and it worked perfect for me. Thanx a lot Thom -- Always remember that you are unique.
