something along the lines of... shutdown all users evolution move all users .evolution to .evoloution.hold for each user ln -s /mails/john/.evolution /home/john/.evolution ln -s /mails/ron/.evolution /home/ron/.evolution ... for each user mv .evolution.hold/* /home/$user/.evolution or you can use tar rather than renaming and mv'ing.... _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
