All of my FreeBSD servers boot from CD, and we are going to be having
several temporary employees coming and going over the next 6-12 months. 
Is it possible to move the user/group databases from their location in
/etc (which is read only on my CDs) to another location?

I have read the man page concerning pw and still do not understand what I
should be doing.  Any suggestions, or direction to a how-to would be
greatly appreciated.

Thanks,


Jay
