Thanks, the issue I have is exporting usernames and password into a text file, so I can import them using addusers.exe. I could just copy the passwd file in to text file, import the file into Excel, and strip off unwanted fields. The problem with this is having to reset all passwords. I have used Cacls.exe before to match usernames with folders, so maybe I can use that in this case. _______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota Help beta test TCLUG's potential new home: http://plone.mn-linux.org Got pictures for TCLUG?
