I would like to migrate our servers from RH 5.2 to SUSE 7. I have verified all applications work as they do on RH. The question I have is regarding the move of user accounts from non-shadow to shadow type pw's. What is the best practice to perform the account moves?

Converting a non-shadow to a shadow system should be possible with pwconv/grpconv. Ciao, Stefan
