SUMMARY
=======
You can use the Move User utility (MOVEUSER.EXE) to move users in the following
three ways:
- Drag the users to specified postoffices (POs).
-or-
- Export a user to an .MMU file, and then import that user into the
destination.
-or-
- Highlight the user to be moved, and then choose Move from the File menu.
If you use one of the latter two ways to move a user, there is a 50 percent
chance that the user will lose his or her password.
MORE INFORMATION
================
The environment where users lose their passwords is predictable and is dependent
on enhanced security (EN). There are four scenarios that administrators
preparing to use MOVEUSER.EXE should be aware of:
Source PO Destination PO Password Moved
---------------------------------------------------------
EN = on EN = on Yes
EN = on EN = off Yes
EN = off EN = off No
EN = off EN = on No
The Move User utility is dependent on enhanced security because MOVEUSER.EXE
re-encrypts or doesn't encrypt the user's password, depending on how the
MASTER.GLB recorded enhanced security.
