How do you recover a multiplayer ID-server side?

A friend that plays on my server has forgotten to write down his multiplayer id. Being the server admin, is it possible to recover it, from the server? How is it done?

The multiplayer ID on the server is missing the last four or so digits, unfortunately.

Have him create a new char with the new account id he got. Using Ioncross, look up one of his old chars. Note the directory the old char is in (usually something like 23-xxxxxx). Go to that directory and cut out (just copying is not advised) the charfiles only (the .fl files) to an easily accessible temporary directory. Look up his new char, go to the directory this new char is in and paste over the old charfiles out of the temporary directory you just created.
