Is it possible to restore/merge master.passwd across the revision boundary?

I just moved a bunch of user accounts from 4.9 system to 5.3 system. All it took was pasting the relevant lines of old master.passwd into new master.passwd using vipw. I didn't touch any system user accounts, of course.


Do I have to do the same with /etc/groups?

/etc/group is just a text file, so there are no problems. Except, again, don't replace the system groups of your 5.3 system with the ones from 4.10.
