[cisco-voip] userID/password/PINs lost during migration from 4.x to 6.x

[Lelio Fulgenzi]

I can appreciate GUI changes. I'm always happy to see things change when 
they make things easier to use.

But what I'm concerned with is the fact that they don't think it's necessary 
to port userIDs and passwords over.

Can you imagine having to tell thousands of users that you have to reset 
your password? What about security risks? I don't know the details but if it 
sets everyone's password to a default password and you tell everyone this, 
that opens up some exposures, don't you think?

I might not even an export/import utility?
