    Hello
    I should have said I 'restored' not 'copied' the files. As usual I had
    a number of great tips. All of the necessary files seemed to exist so I
    restored them again and things worked. My original question is below.
    Michael Bucholtz sent this consize list to check against.
            /etc passwd (and passwd.pag and passwd.dir)
            /etc/group
            /tcb/files/auth.db
            /var/tcb/files/auth.db
            /etc/auth/system

    Spider Boardman suggested the tcb and auth files as well.
    Chris.Byrant and Anne Majeske sent these copy commands:
    It sounds like you are running enhanced security.
    On the source machine: # edauth -g > auth.out
    On the target machine: # edauth -s < auth.out

    ALPHASERVER ES40

    I have upgraded our hardware to a new ES40. I installed the O/S and
    then copied over the /etc/passwd, /tcb/files directories. The problem
    is all the users came across with an locked account. Is there some
    method, or am I missing a file, that can restore only the 'unlocked'
    status to the appropriate users?

    Thanks you
