Hello,

    Quite beginner in freeipa land, I am trying to add options to

    The command 'ipa user-add --help' succeeds giving me the correct
    help message. But when I try to add the user it fails:

        ipa user-add foo --to-stage --first=foo --last=foo
        ipa: ERROR: Unknown option: tostage


This seems to occur because the frontend find this is a 'remaining'
    option.. but what does it means ?
    I tried to add the new options as internal options, or with
    different names, but it gives the same results.
    I know it is a very novice question, but I have really no idea I
    should fix it. Anyone know what I am missing ?

Hi,
Adding these options works for me; I think the most likely reason is
you're still using the old version. Did you install the changed file
properly? If you're just copying the .py file to /usr/lib, remember to
restart Apache.

Hi Petr,

    Thanks for the info.
    I am using the cli, not the web interface and I installed just
    copying user.py to
    /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ipalib/plugins/user.py.
    I believe I am using the new version as the '--help' option shows
    the new added options '--to-stage' and '--from-stage'.

The CLI talks to the server, and the options are validated again at the server. The --help shows only the client part of the picture.
Do try restarting Apache (`sudo apachectl graceful`).

Thanks Petr, I missed that and now it is working fine. I found it described in your presentation http://www.freeipa.org/images/d/d8/FreeIPA33-server-and-client.pdf :-)

Thanks for your precious help.

    Did you succeed to add a user with something like: ipa user-add foo
    --to-stage --first=foo --last=foo ?

Yes.

    may be something bad with my deployment I am using freeipa 3.3. Did
    you test on master ?

Yes, I tested on master, but I don't think that should be an issue.
