Hello;

Using an "rcp" script through cron, we copy the contents of our /etc/security/passwd, /etc/security/group, /etc/passwd, and /etc/group files from our Control Workstation (AIX 433 ML 10) to a standalone p630 (51 ML3) and have never encountered any issues.

Thanks;
Theresa

Good Day,

    Does anyone know if it's possible to copy our /etc/passwd and
/etc/group files from a 4.3.3 ML 10 box to a 5.1 ML 03 and 5.2 box?

TIA,
