I've had to do this a few times... it's not so bad. Following is an=20
over-simplified explanation of my approach.
Password encryption is md5. What I would do is put together a simple=20
spreadsheet for the user records you will need, with the passwords in=20
clear text. Then export your spreadsheet to a .csv file. Using=20
something like phpMyAdmin, import this csv file into your users table=20
(don't forget to change the value in users_seq to something bigger than=20=
the id of your last user record when done). Then run a sql query to md5=20=
the new user's passwords.
best luck,
verdon
