How can I transfer Accounts to a new Server?

Here SysOps can list their MultiPlayer server info and users can send feedback to their SysOps. Or just talk about the MultiPlayer servers they play on. This is not about MultiPlayer in general - please use the MultiPlayer Forum for that!

How can I transfer Accounts to a new Server?

Does any one out there know how to move player accounts from one freelanacer lan server to another. I have two server running on our clubs game Lan, one with player kills and one without. The members of our club want to pull down one of the servers and transfer the accounts the the other. Is there any way for me to save the hard work of half of our members?

first find folder 'my games' in my documents folder on server and there are stored all account files so just copy those files from one server to another!
and restart server after that!

I have done that, but when players from one server try to connect their accounts are not there for them to load. They do however show up on the server under accounts. There are two files on the other server that I dont copy over one is a server config and another unknow file. Are these part of the puzzle?

Thank you for the help!

Thanks, I was looking for this info too. Thinking of upgrading the machine it's on from Win/ME to Win/XP, and hated to loose the data.
