Forgive me for posting something that is not strictly Linux related. However,
I know a lot of you also have SAN experience too.
We are looking to extend our SAN infrastructure to include a remote location
in Syracuse, NY (approx. 250 miles from Poughkeepsie). We already have a
network connection
Is there an easy way to copy user account information from Linux system to
another? I'm building a new guest and don't want to have to redefine every
user id.

First, think about getting a centralized user repository (ldap, active
directory, etc) :)
You could vipw and vipw -s and edit the password and shadow files and copy that
stuff.
Then rsync the users home directories.

I was afraid to think it was that easy.

Mark,
The other extra step you have to take, is to create the /home/$USER directories
or copy those directories from one server to another (remember to keep the
permissions)

I used webmin to export and import them.
May the force be with you.
