[opencms-dev] user integration from passwd files

[M Butcher]

If you look at the database export file format (XML), you can see how 
users are stored. IIRC, teh data files that are stored in the ~users 
directory are just serialized Hastable objects. I think that you could 
probably devise a way of converting from a CSV to XML. I don't remember 
what the hash method is for the passwords... so I'm not sure of you can 
use the hashed contents of the passwd file, or if you need cleartext 
passwords.
