asked on

windows 2003 server user and password export

I have a old windows 2003 web server that is not a domain controller.  I installed a new windows 2003 web server which I need to get the users to.  Is there a way to export the users and passwords from the old server to the new.  These are not active directory users.

Thank you

Thank you for your response.  The tool referenced in you post is for Active Directory.  My problem is that these are local user accounts.
Ahh sorry I missed the NOT a domain controller bit.

You could try to back up the SAM database using ntbackup and then do a restore to the new machine
