This page can be used to export some or all of the users on your system as a batch file usable with the modules Create, modify and delete users from batch file feature. This can be useful if you want to migrate users to another system, or create a backup of the user database on this system.

The fields on this forn are :

Batch file destination
  This field simply determines if the resulting file will be displayed on screen, or saved to a file on the server.

Batch file format
  This menu determines which format will be used for the resulting batch file, with your system's format selected. If you are creating a batch for use on a system running a different OS, then the format suitable for that OS should be selected.

Users to export
  This section determines which Unix users will be included in the batch file. If you are restricted to only editing some of the users on this system, then that restriction will apply along with any that you choose here.

The batch file created using this feature will only include basic user details, NOT the contents of their home directories, quotas, Samba passwords or other settings. As such, it is not a replacement for regular backups!
