We have an Appleshare server with quite a few users and groups defined.
Now people have system7 they have started using Personal Appleshare.
I want to enable those people wishing to publish their own volumes to
be able to use a CONSISTANT USERS & GROUPS file. I want them to be able
to use the Users&Groups file from the Appleshare3.0 server.

I know that I can convert from System7 Users&Groups to Appleshare3.0
Users&Groups but this is of no help. The file exists on Appleshare3.0
and there should be a way to convert for System7 Personal A'Share.
I dont want to re-type (and ask each user his password) the whole thing -
there are some 50 users.

Has anyone tackled this problem before ?

I would be grateful for any help.
