Check for all tools which variables are used.
Check all the expiry semantics
Add options --crypt-method and --sha-rounds to gpasswd
method => algorithm in manpages
ALL:
- move base passwd/shadow/group/gshadow operation to module for allow write
different backend modules for db, NIS, LDAP and others. Default backend it
will be goot if will be chosen depending on /etc/nsswitch.conf and allow
override this by -r <repository> options (where the <repository> can be
file, db, nis nisplus, ldap .. like on /etc/nsswitch.conf in service column).
passwd have old piece of code with handling -r option and it will be good
finish this and propagate on other shadow tools for allow operate on other
user databases by well known tools.
- Add/check support for split group
Maybe that feature can be supported in gr_open/gr_close, with a variable
in login.defs.
- useradd:
- add handle create user mail spool in maildir format.
- add handle -n switch in groups and id command for allow query is
group/user with specified id/gid exist - this will be very usable
on automation in packages for query/check is group/user exist in system
or not,
- groupmems:
- need some work on add PAM and i18n support.
- userdel:
- add backup option for the removal of user resources,
- add lookop and remove per user group.
- user_busy: check that the user is not running any processes.
- passwd:
- check combination of options (e.g. -u/-l)
- newgrp: check the USE_PAM section.
- groupmems: check reason for isgroup
- chgpasswd: uses chpasswd's pam config file. Why?
- newusers: i = 100; no a nice initial value, use login.defs
- newusers: doc for pw_gid not clear. Differentiate
pw_gid specified and exist
pw_gid specified but does not exist
* name
* number
pw_gid not specified.
- newusers: document what happens when no uid is specified.
- newusers: add option --system?
Documentation:
- document the -s option of {pw,grp}ck in the pt_BR, and ja man pages
- document -o option in ja man page,
