I am trying to find out if it is possible to merge two different systems into one due to server consolidation from an older machine to a new machine that is connected to an EMC Symmetric. My main obstacle is how to combine users home directories, /etc/passwd, /etc/shadow, /etc/group. Basically how to get the user data over. Has anyone ever combined two systems to one and jumped the user data obstacle. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks,

p
