If you have any idea how to improve manual page, please, share it.

Hi,

please see my comments inline.

btw the patches work more or less fine -- great work, thanks.

The only functional error is the missing check for NULL res value if an
entry is found by getpwnam() but not sysdb_getpwnam():

[root@client ~]# sss_override user-add root -n toor
ldb: unable to dlopen /usr/lib64/ldb/modules/ldb/memberof.la :
/usr/lib64/ldb/modules/ldb/memberof.la: invalid ELF header
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

I think it was problem of accessing dom rather than res. Check is there.

After testing, I put the patches through Coverity. Here are the errors
(some were already mentioned in the review):

I fixed all of them, hopefully, except:

Yes, it is a dead code. But I think it's better to leave it in:
1) Without default a compiler will produce warning since not all SYSDB_MEMBER* are used.
2) Better to have it.

Do you think it may be better to use all SYSDB_MEMBER* instead of default branch? It will however also produce the coverity warning, I think.


Also you forgot to package the new tool and the new man page in the specfile.

And finally, some questions/proposals after testing:

- Do you think it makes sense to also add -find and -show commands?

In the future, yes. We may want them.

- I wonder if we should explicitly barf if the user triying to override
   UID to 0 ? I did test it and it's not possible, sssd returns the original
   UID, which is good, I just wonder about a nicer error message.

Or a man page change? Or both? It is not in this patchset...
