1 * Create a common usage function that'd take the array of
2 long options and an array of descriptions and output that so things would
3 be standardized across the utils.
4 Usage strings should be normalized and split first.
9 * GROUP=1000 should accept a group name.
11 Check when RLOGIN is enabled if ruserok() exists
13 Move selinux_file_context out of libmisc/copydir.c
15 Review hardcoded root account?
17 review all call to strto
19 libmisc/cleanup_user.c
20 cleanup needed (cleanup_report_add_user* not used)
24 * http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/patches/browser/trunk/shadow/shadow-4.0.18.1-owl_blowfish-1.patch
26 implement getlong, getulong.
27 avoid atoi, atol, atoul, strtol, strtoul, ...
29 manpages: comment the RLOGIN parts
31 Replace build_list (in lib/gshadow.c) and list (in lib/sgetgrent.c) by
34 Revert the modified files if all files could not be changed.
35 * or warn and indicate which files were modified and which were not.
36 * check the order the files are modified.
38 report nscd_flush_cache failures?
39 call nscd from the programs or from lib (commonio?)
41 PAM: check if a non-interactive conversation function could be used to set
42 the password in chpasswd and newusers
45 - review all tools to check that the strategies are consistent
47 chage, chfn, chsh: same change needed as in passwd.
48 - probably need moving check_selinux_access to a separate file.
52 - test with unknown user's GID
55 - add logging to SYSLOG & AUDIT
57 - Add a -Z option (see useradd / usermod)
59 Document when/where option appeared, document whether an option is standard
62 Check all the expiry semantics
65 - move base passwd/shadow/group/gshadow operation to module for allow write
66 different backend modules for db, NIS, LDAP and others. Default backend it
67 will be goot if will be chosen depending on /etc/nsswitch.conf and allow
68 override this by -r <repository> options (where the <repository> can be
69 file, db, nis nisplus, ldap .. like on /etc/nsswitch.conf in service column).
70 passwd have old piece of code with handling -r option and it will be good
71 finish this and propagate on other shadow tools for allow operate on other
72 user databases by well known tools.
73 - Protect against signals. Register do_cleanups in a signal handler.
76 - generate depending on configuration
79 - add handle create user mail spool in maildir format.
80 - Add support for -k in -D mode
81 - Add support for -K in -D mode
82 - Add option to create or not the mail spool (and set the default in -D
84 - Change -l to reset the entry if an entry was already there
85 - set the mask in mkdir?
88 - add backup option for the removal of user resources,
89 - user_busy: check that the user is not running any processes.
90 - missing "deleting group" FAILED
91 - home dir removed, but userdel may fail and may leave the user
95 - add an option equivalent to useradd's -l (only when uid is changed)
96 - the mode of new home directories should be set according to the
97 original mode. Does copy_tree does this?
98 - user renamed, order is not kept in /etc/group (see
99 47_usermod-l_no_shadow_file). This is a problem when the first user is
100 considered as the admin.
101 - see mail "user ID change" on April, 15
102 + fix call to chown (combination of -m and -u/-g)
106 - check combination of options (e.g. -u/-l)
107 - when -u refuse to unlock because it would create an empty password, it
108 should not display "Password changed."
111 - newgrp: check the USE_PAM section.
114 - Add check to move passwd passwords to shadow if there is a shadow
115 entry (with a password).
116 - Add check to move passwd passwords to shadow if there is a shadow
118 - Support an alternative /etc/tcb directory as second parameter.
119 - add options -g / -G to specify alternative group / gshadow files
122 - add a login.defs configuration parameter to add variables to keep in
123 the environment with "su -l" (TERM/TERMCOLOR/...)
126 - set ACLs and XATTRs on the temporary file (and backups?)
