Hi Jean-François,
only if you use the same method to crypt the passwords. Look in your old /etc/shadow and compare the password field to the one in the new /etc/shadow. If your old passwords use another encryption, you must change the method on 10.0 via YaST. This only works if you use "local(/etc/passwd)" for authentification.
Yes. I use local /etc/passwd for password encryption. So I guess it will work. Thank you for your input mdc ! Cheers Jean-François
