8To 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: Restore saved data
Copy the files you want to reuse from their backup location.
FTP Configuration Files
Copy saved FTP configuration files to:
•/Library/FTPServer/Configuration/
•/Library/FTPServer/Messages/
WebObjects Applications and Frameworks
Make manual modifications to the new installed version of apache.conf if you want to
reuse the previous server’s web configuration.
Copy saved WebObjects applications and frameworks to:
•/Local/Library/WebServer
•/Library/WebServer
User Data
Restore saved user data files, including home directories. Instructions for restoring
Macintosh Manager data are in step 10.
Place home directories in locations that match the locations in the imported user
records. If necessary, use Workgroup Manager to edit user accounts so the locations in
the account and on disk are the same.
QuickTime Streaming Server Files and Folders
Follow instructions in the QuickTime Streaming Server administration guide to reuse
files and folders saved from /Library/QuickTimeStreaming/.
