| H A D | chpass.1 | diff 14212 Fri Feb 23 14:08:59 MST 1996 wpaul Merge in changes to support the new rpc.yppasswdd(8) and fix a few bugs. In passwd(1): - Gut most of yp_passwd.c and leave only a few things that aren't common to pw_yp.c. - Add support for -d and -h flags to select domains and NIS server hosts to use when updating NIS passwords. This allows passwd(1) to be used for changing NIS passwords from machines that aren't configured as NIS clients. (This is mostly to allow passwd(1) to work on NIS master servers that aren't configured as clients -- an NIS server need not necessarily be configured as a client itself.) NOTE: Realize that having the ability to specify a domain and hostname lets you use passwd(1) (and chpass(1) too) to submit update requests to yppasswd daemons running on remote servers in remote domains which you may not even be bound to. For example, my machine at home is not an NIS client of the servers on the network that I manage, yet I can easily change my password at work using my FreeBSD box at home by doing: 'passwd -d work.net.domain -h any.nis.server.on.my.net wpaul'. (Yes, I do use securenets at work; temporarily modified my securenets file to give my home system access.) Some people may not be too thrilled with this idea. Those who don't like this feature can recompile passwd(1) and chpass(1) with -DPARANOID to restrict the use of these flags to the superuser. (Oh, I should be adding proper securenets support to ypserv(8) and rpc.yppasswdd(8) over the weekend.) - Merge in changes to allow root on the NIS master server to bypass authentication and change any user's NIS password. (The super-user on the NIS master already has privileges to do this, but doing it through passwd(1) is much easier than updating the maps by hand.) Note that passwd(1) communicates with rpc.yppasswdd(8) via a UNIX domain socket instead of via standard RPC/IP in this case. - Update man page. In chpass(1): - Fix pw_yp.c to work properly in environments where NIS client services aren't available. - Use realloc() instead of malloc() in copy_yp_pass() and copy_local_pass(). - Fix silly bug in copy_yp_pass(); some of the members of the passwd structure weren't being filled in correctly. (This went unnoticed for a while since the old yppasswdd didn't allow changes to the fields that were being botched.) - chpass(1) now also allows the superuser on the NIS master server to make unrestricted changes to any user's NIS password information. - Use UNIX domain comm channel to rpc.yppasswdd(8) when run by the superuser on the NIS master. This allows several new things: o superuser can update an entire master.passwd.{byname,byuid} entry o superuser can update records in arbitrary domains using -d flag to select a domain (before you could only change the default domain) o superuser can _add_ records to the NIS master.passwd maps, provided rpc.yppasswdd(8) has been started with the -a flag (to do this, the superuser must force NIS operation by specifying the -y flag to chpass(1) along with -a, i.e. 'chpass -y -a 'foo:::::::::') - Back out the 'chpass -a <new password entry> breaks with NIS' fix from the last revision and fix it properly this time. The previous revision fixed the immediate problem but broke NIS operation in some cases. - In edit.c, be a little more reasonable about deciding when to prevent the shell field from being changed. Submitted by Charles Owens <owensc@enc.edu>, who said: "I made a minor (one-line) modification to chpass, with regards to whether or not it allows the changing of shells. In the 2.0.5 code, field changing follows the settings specified in the "list" structure defined in table.c . For the shell, though, this is ignored. A quick look in edit.c showed me why, but I don't understand why it was written as such. The logic was if shell is standard shell, allow changing I changed it to if shell changing is allowed (per table.c) and it is a standard shell OR if uid=0, then allow changing."
