Jeebus, I certainly hope not.

Yeah, sorry about that. In our situation, we're changing the password hash, so
we've got to change them.

Ah yeah this is good, too. I didn’t
think of that in my response. This way you don’t need to distribute new
passwords.
But a small modification to this flow,
because I don’t think you need to go so far with storing passwords. This
is assuming, of course, you have full access to LDAP
Pick a day of the transfer.
Generate new passwords for all users on the system.
Notify all users of their new passwords as of the date of the transfer you
decide on.
On the day of the transfer, update the LDAP (or both LDAPs if there are two)
with the password assigned and previously distributed to
A solution to this is a script setup like this:
- external file with
username_src,known_password_src,username_dest,known_password_dest
- cycle through file
- login to ldap on src account
- save current encrypted password
- change password to SHA or MD5 enc version of passw

a last question : do you use flat for all cyrus files or just for
mailboxes.db ?
For us, flat is where it's at. We're using flat for everything.
I should probably give you more information to base your decision on,
though.

I will try flat files and if no troubles , I will keep it.

Use the 'cvt_cyrusdb' utility; there's a man page for it.

As the cyrus user run:

'filename' will now be a text file listing the mailboxes. You can
directly edit this file. When you are done making changes to it you can
re-import it with:
ctl_mboxlist -u < filename
You will want to move the mailboxes.db out of the way befor

I have searched the web and checked in the mailman forums and no one
seems to have an answer.
I have postfix and cyrus setup and working. I want to add mailman to
this setup. I was trying to do it without making a new virtual domain.
My main domain is mutantegg.com, I just want the mail man
We are in the process of trying to convert our database from
version 2.0.16 to 2.2.12.
To convert the our data we have tried the following:
Ctl_mboxlist –C /opt/csw/etc/cyrus/imapd.conf –d
–f /tmp/ourdatabase.dmp
Ctl_mboxlist –C /opt/csw/etc/cyrus/imapd.conf –d
–f /var/imap/mailbox
Try adding [EMAIL PROTECTED] to the admins line of imapd.conf and then

I have now managed to download imapsync. As I will be transferring mail
from one account to another account within the "SAME" server, do I need
to use the passwords of the accounts (which are not available to us)?
I can do it as cyrus user hopefully?
