I migrate from a Proxmox 6 cluster to Proxmox 8 cluster.
How can migrate all vm users ?
I have tried coping the /etc/pve/user.cfg

Users that were created in the PVE realm or PAM? PAM realm users are backed by the local linux users via the PAM system. PVE users will most likely have a second file for the password hashes. Check with ls -l for any files starting with a dot, or/and in the /etc/pve/priv directory.
