Migrating to new server and changing security levels 1

[bmal23]

I have installed 5.0.6a on a new server and selected improved security. I would like to copy over all of the user accounts from a 5.0.5 server which is running traditional security. What is the best way to accomplish this? Should I change the security on the 5.0.6a server to be traditional and copy over the passwd, shadow, and group files, and then change the security to improved?

Thanks..
