existing ones.

6e9078f16c Switch to the C locale before sending messages to syslog. The messages
sent by shadow were not translated, but error messages from PAM returned
by pam_strerror() were translated in the users's locale.

4e01ea6c33 * NEWS: newusers will behave more like useradd.
* src/newusers.c: The user's ID must be found before the group ID
	to mimic useradd's behavior choices of UID and GID.
	* src/newusers.c: Reuse the generic find_new_uid() and
	find_new_gid() functions. This permits to respect the
	UID_MIN/UID_MAX and GID_MIN/GID_MAX variables, should 
	* src/newusers.c: Check if the user or group exist using the
	external databases (with the libc getpwnam/getgrnam functions).
	Refuse to update an user which exist in an external database but
	does not exist in the local database.
	* src/newusers.c: Check the usernames and groupnames with
	check_user_name() and check_group_name()
	* src/newusers.c: Use isdigit() for readability.
	* src/newusers.c: Check if numerical IDs are valid (no remaining
	chars).

	* NEWS, src/newusers.c: Fix the support for the NONE crypt method.

	* src/newusers.c: Fix shadow group support (the list of admins was
	not defined; it is now set to an empty list).

65ed10d75c Do not seed the random number generator each time, and use the time in
microseconds to avoid having the same salt for different passwords
generated in the same second.  This permits to avoid using the same salt
for different passwords in newusers.

934ac07b06 Check that the new fields set with -u, -s, -l, -g, -f, -e, -d, and -c
differ from the old ones. If a requested new value is equal to the old
one, no changes will be performed for that field. If no fields are
changed, usermod will exist successfully with a warning. This avoids
logging changes to syslog when there are actually no changes.

ae8cbbc34d * NEWS, src/newgrp.c: Fix segfault when an user returns to an
unknown GID (either the user was deleted during the user's newgrp
  session or the user's passwd entry referenced an invalid group).
  Add a syslog warning in that case.
* src/newgrp.c: Add an end of line when reporting an invalid
  password.

1c2f4f0428 No functional changes were introduced by the previous pwck and grpck
changes, except for the following bug fix: no syslog logging if a passwd
or group file was specified on the command line without a shadowed

db38d0b104 * src/chage.c: Fix typo: s/maximim/maximum/
* src/chage.c: New function: fail_exit(). Change most of the exit()
	to a fail_exit, which makes sure the files are unlocked (new global
	variables: pw_locked, spw_locked), the PAM transaction is ended, and
	the failure is logged to libaudit (use a global user_name and user_uid
	for logging).
	* src/chage.c: Compilation fix for PAM support (pamh needs to be
	global since the function split).
	* src/chage.c: Document process_flags(), check_flags(), check_perms(),
	open_files(), and close_files().
	* src/chage.c: Split update_age() and get_defaults() out of main()
	* src/chage.c: Drop the privileges just after opening the files.
	* src/chage.c: Do not log to audit only if the user has an entry in
	the shadow file.
	* NEWS, src/chage.c (open_files): Also open the password file for
	writing. This fix chage when the user only has a password entry (and
	no shadow entries).
	* src/chage.c (get_defaults): Use default values that don't change the
	behavior of the account for the fields that are not specified when the
	user has no shadow entry.

* NEWS: Document that usermod will now preserve user's file modification
    and access time.
    * libmisc/copydir.c: Preserve the access and modification time of copied
    files. This is important for usermod. This will also impact useradd, for
    the skeleton files, but this is not important.

    closed after during a copy.

e15fbb905c * NEWS, lib/getdef.c, man/login.defs.5.xml: New login.defs
variable: MAX_MEMBERS_PER_GROUP. Used for the split groups support.
* lib/commonio.c, lib/commonio.h: Add an open_hook and close_hook
  operation. They are called after the database is actually opened
  and parse, or before it is closed.
* lib/groupio.c: Add an open_hook to merge split groups, and an
  close group to split groups if MAX_MEMBERS_PER_GROUP is set.
  This fixes gpasswd and chgpasswd when split groups are used.
* lib/sgroupio.c, lib/shadowio.c, lib/pwio.c: No open or close
  hooks for these databases. (unsure about what should be the gshadow
  behavior for split groups)

a0488ccac2 * NEWS, src/gpasswd.c: Read the group and shadow groups using
gr_locate and sgr_locate. gpasswd write in the file database. Thus
  it should read information from the file database, not using
  getgrnam. The change to sgr_locate is just for consistency. This
  requires opening the group databases (read only) using
  gr_open/sgr_open.
* NEWS: Indicate that manpages should be re-generated if configure
  option are changed, due to conditions.

  return a status code, but call fail_exit() in case of error. The
  group files are no more opened and closed in update_gshadow() and
  update_group().
* src/usermod.c (main): move the call to grp_update between
  open_files and close_files.
