All this tests have been done only on the DSS V6 system.
The system was out of the box and was updated from V6up65 to V6up75.
Then i tried to import only a simple UID and a GID CSV file. UIDS for about 200 users and 24 GIDS. This files have been an export from the old system with DSS V5.
There was NEVER a configuration file or something more complex configuration
imported from any other system. We do NOT talk about the settings file!
Documentation says that the CSV file is identicaly structured as in the older version.
Simple "USERNAME;UID(LINEFEED)" per line. Same for GIDS.
Please try to generate a CSV file as described in the documentation and import this
file. This will fail.
Please create two groups by using the GUI.
Please export this two groups as GIDS.CSV file.
Please delete one of the created groups by using the GUI.
Now the list in the GUI shows up only one of the created groups.
Please export the groups again as GIDS.CSV file and take a look inside.
Here you will see that the deleted group is back again.
When you now reimport this last exported GIDS.CSV file this file should
overwrite the existing group settings, but it will not.
I will not copy, import or sync any data between this two systems. I want only
the same users und groups on the new DSS V6 system as on the old one. We are not talking about DATA with ACLs or any shares with access rights at this point.
Maybe we have to set a checkmark at another position to do this batch import for users und groups but the only way at this time is to manualy type in every user and group using the GUI. But this will result in different IDs for the groups and the users compared to the old system.
