Question server harddisk upgrade

hi friends,

one of my clnts wants his Hard drive to be ugrded . He is currently using SCO unix 5.04 on a 4.3 Gig SCSI drive. He wants me to upgrd it to 18 Gigs . All he wants is that the data / programs / userfiles shall be intact. he has 3 user slices /user1, /user2 , /user3 presently and wants the same in the new one.

i want to kno how to copy back the entire contents of the old /user1 , and so on to the new one . i m sure just cp will not be able to copy the file permissions and user permissions also. also i want to kno if i can just copy the /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow file from the old to the new one so that the usernames and passwords dont have to be created in the new one . Smilie

any help or pointers will be highly appreciated

NAME
dspam_merge - merge several users' metadata into a composite SYNOPSIS
dspam_merge [--profile=PROFILE] user1 user2 ... userN -o username DESCRIPTION
dspam_merge merges several users' metadata into a single user's dictionary. This tool is designed to create global users and seeded data. The hit sounds for each token and per-user totals are added together to produce a single composite dataset. After creating a composite user, dspam_clean should be run with the -p option to clean up extraneous data. NOTE : Merges may take a considerable amount of time. This could potentially increase the load on the server or even slow down the delivery of email. A merge should only be performed when the system is fairly acquiesce. OPTIONS
--profile=PROFILE Specify a storage profile from dspam.conf. The storage profile selected will be used for all database connectivity. See dspam.conf for more information. user1 user2 ... userN A list of users to merge together. -o username The target user which will be created (if necessary). This user will contain the composite generated by the merge. EXAMPLES
dspam_merge dick jane spot -o ralph Merges the metadata dictionaries of dick, jane, and spot into a single composite under the user ralph EXIT VALUE
