[Tfug] Migrating users....

[Chris Hill]

I'm migrating a large number of users (45) from one machine to another. 
I have been told by the sysadmin of the new machine that the old 
passwords won't work on the new machine because the hash of the pass in 
/etc/shadow uses a machine-specific seed that won't be on the new 
machine. I haven't done this in a loooong time but I don't think I've 
had this problem before. Is this going to be an issue?

Thanks,
Chris
