I have no users on this box as of yet. It is a clean install of CentOS
5.3. The server only does email, as we have another server for domain
control. I had thought I could just copy /home/* /etc/shadow and
/etc/passwd and /var/spool/mail. Does it matter which file I copy
first? Should I do passwd and shadow first? then do home, and leave
/var/spool/mail to last?

If I do it this way, will it keep all my users passwords as well?

Thanks.
