-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.
-- Protect against signals. Register do_cleanups in a signal handler.
-
-- login.defs
- - generate depending on configuration
-
-- useradd:
- - add handle create user mail spool in maildir format.
- - Add support for -k in -D mode
- - Add support for -K in -D mode
- - Add option to create or not the mail spool (and set the default in -D
- mode)
- - Change -l to reset the entry if an entry was already there
- - set the mask in mkdir?
-
-- userdel:
- - add backup option for the removal of user resources,
- - user_busy: check that the user is not running any processes.
- - missing "deleting group" FAILED
- - home dir removed, but userdel may fail and may leave the user
- => warning needed
-
-- usermod
- - add an option equivalent to useradd's -l (only when uid is changed)
- - the mode of new home directories should be set according to the
- original mode. Does copy_tree does this?
- - user renamed, order is not kept in /etc/group (see
- 47_usermod-l_no_shadow_file). This is a problem when the first user is
- considered as the admin.
- - see mail "user ID change" on April, 15
- + fix call to chown (combination of -m and -u/-g)
- + add tests
-
-- passwd:
- - check combination of options (e.g. -u/-l)
- - when -u refuse to unlock because it would create an empty password, it
- should not display "Password changed."
- exit instead?
-
-- newgrp: check the USE_PAM section.
-
-- pwck
- - Add check to move passwd passwords to shadow if there is a shadow
- entry (with a password).
- - Add check to move passwd passwords to shadow if there is a shadow
- file.
- - Support an alternative /etc/tcb directory as second parameter.
- - add options -g / -G to specify alternative group / gshadow files
-
-- su
- - add a login.defs configuration parameter to add variables to keep in
- the environment with "su -l" (TERM/TERMCOLOR/...)
-
-- vipw
- - set ACLs and XATTRs on the temporary file (and backups?)
- - vipw + selinux -> use lib/selinux.c
