Subject: Question about chsh/chfn/passwd patches
Date: Wed, 15 Oct 2003 05:44:06 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20031015034406.GA1644@suse.de> (raw)


Hi,

I have a question about the passwd/chfn/chsh patches.

passwd only calls checkAccess. chfn/chsh additional calls 
setupDefaultContext. 

I don't understand what the last function makes. For what is it good,
and why don't we need to call it from passwd?

  Thanks,
    Thorsten
