Hello,
I am running a small FreeBSD server and I have a a couple of users
ssh'ing to it. I want to wipe the server out and reinstall FreeBSD on
it, but I want to preserve the users' credentials. Can you please
advise me how to back them up?
/home/*
/etc/master.passwd
/var/cron/tabs/*
/var/mail/*
possibly other files.
but format+reinstall is when you have windows, with unix there is no
need to.

You might as well save the whole /etc, you will probably need other conf
files and surely you would like to have /etc/passwd and /etc/group
In fact, I would also backup the whole /usr/local/etc to get all the
configuration settings for my services and so on.
