Or you give the upgrade credentials to access LDAP and Kerberos — if 
not simply reusing the credentials from the existing OS for that access 
— and off you go.

As much as I like relational databases over RMS, LDAP and Kerberos are 
a widely-available distributed authentication system, with built-in 
support for replication and distribution.
