I've done migration from linux to OpenBSD. They have got a lil bit different syntax in /etc/passwd file. Make sure you check on that. Everything else seems to me just fine with your algorithm.
I might be mistaken but how can you run 75 httpds on separtly on one box? As far as i understand you run just one server and it creates child process using config file. If this is the case then you just have to install just one httpd and edit and copy your old httpd.conf to a new box.

NAME
wall -- write a message to users
SYNOPSIS
wall [-n] [-t TIMEOUT] [file]
DESCRIPTION
Wall displays the contents of file or, by default, its standard input, on the terminals of all currently logged in users. The command will
cut over 79 character long lines to new lines. Short lines are white space padded to have 79 characters. The command will always put carriage
return and new line at the end of each line.
Only the super-user can write on the terminals of users who have chosen to deny messages or are using a program which automatically denies
messages.
Reading from a file is refused when the invoker is not superuser and the program is suid or sgid.
OPTIONS
-n, --nobanner

-h, --help Output help and exit.
SEE ALSO
