Hi,
 
When 5.3 is released, I am planning to upgrade from 5.2.1.
I have searched google groups and found conflicting answers so I figured I
would ask here.
I have backed up my /etc/passwd /etc/master.passwd and /etc/group.
My /usr/home is mounted on a separate drive the the rest of the system so I
should have no need to back up files. (If users wish to they can)
What I want to know, is do I simply copy over the relevant files listed
above, on the fresh install,  with my backups, or is there some special
process I have to use to restore the user database on the newly installed
system?
If there is a set process, could someone please give me a link to it
(handbook? (I couldn't find it)).
 
Thanks in advance
