Question Transfer passwords

Problem: I transferred user accounts (using "ap") from our production SCO UnixWare (7.1.1) server to a new server that I will be implementing next week. After transferring all accounts and passwords to the "new" server, I had to force a password change for all users on the old one due to an employee getting laid-off.

So the problem is that I have old passwords on the new server and new passwords on the old server! I thought I could just copy over /etc/shadow and even tried /etc/passwd but no luck...



Any ideas? Any info would be most appreciated.

Thanks,
Dave
