I figured I might just jot down some ideas for the future of the passdb subsystem, as well as some of the more immediate todo items:
Actually use the 'unload' passdb code. Currently we don't ever shut down the passdb, execpt on error. We are going to need to do this kind of stuff if we are to make pdb_xml work (for example). Also, we need to get interface versioning going: We have just changed the interface, but we didn't tell anybody :-) (SID stuff). I would like to get pdb_xml into Samba at some stage. What do people think of the idea? (Its a passdb that exports to XML in order to allow backups/hand updates pdb backends, tdbsam in particular.) I've not looked at it much, but it does require the basic stuff like new configure magic (to detect the XML lib etc). http://people.nl.linux.org/~jelmer/downloads/ I'm sure there is more, so I'll probably add to this later.
