Hi easy way is the cmu but this way you would have to copy the /etc/paswd
and
/etc/shadow  the problem is the group name the user belongs to would be in
there so that may cuase a problem if you sites have differant site IDs

maybe be beter to make an export with the cmu if you can start over
you would do an export on one machine and import on the other
