[Fedora-directory-users] Existing User Accounts

[Esquivel, Vicente]

Thanks for the reply.

I ran the scripts and was able to get all of the users imported into the Directory server.  The only question is how do I get their email address into the Directory of the passwd and shadow file information?

Thanks
Vince
