Apple 034-2344 manual To create home directories for imported users, Copy data to the new server

Page 101

You can also use the dsimport tool to import users and groups. See the command-line administration guide for dsimport instructions.

To create home directories for imported users:

You have several options:

Create home directories one at a time by selecting a user account in Workgroup Manager, clicking Advanced, then clicking Create Home Now.

Create all the home directories by using the -a argument of the createhomedir command. For details, see the command-line administration guide or the man page for createhomedir.

A home directory associated with an AFP share point is automatically created the first time a user logs in if it doesn’t exist already.

Step 8: Copy data to the new server

Copy data you want to reuse from the remote ASIP server to Mac OS X Server.

Web Content

Copy static webpages to /Library/Webserver/Documents/.

For dynamic content, consider recoding your existing CGIs using the native Mac OS X Server web server capabilities. You can also run AFIP CGIs based on AppleScript, and it is no longer necessary to have the Classic environment available to run them; run the ACGI Enabler (in /Applications/Utilities/) to set up Apache support for these legacy CGIs.

FTP Configuration Files

To migrate your FTP settings, copy configuration files to the Mac OS X Server directory indicated:

In this directory

Place these files

 

 

/Library/FTPServer/ftpaccess

Configurationftpconversions ftphosts ftpgroups ftpusers

/Library/FTPServer/Messages banner.txt welcome.txt limit.txt

User Data

Place home directories in locations that match the locations in the imported user records. If necessary, you can use Workgroup Manager to edit user accounts so the locations in the account and on disk are the same.

Instructions for restoring Macintosh Manager data are in step 10.
