[BlueOnyx:09619] Re: migration problems BQ to BO

[Gustavo Silva]

Any ideas how can i make sure the password database on the BlueQuartz is 
recent and synced before export? Because im getting a bunch of sites on 
this migration phase that have their user passwords reset to the 
original password when imported on BlueOnyx.

I would be fine with it even if i had to check it by hand... But the 
next phase is ~4600 users... I'm doomed! ;D

Cheers and thanks in advance!
