sanity check by invoking "pwd_mkdb -C". However, if this failed it
silently returned success. Fix this so it fails the update operation
instead.
MFC after: 1 week
a full reindex in this case to remove the old record. #ifdef -u capability
since this is available on FreeBSD only.
PR: bin/16418
Problem pointed out by: Masachika ISHIZUKA <ishizuka@ish.org>
pw(8) was calling pwd_mkdb -u oldusername instead of newusername, so
the update appears to have failed until the next full pwd_mkdb
syncronization.

instead of a boolean. This replicated through he front-end sub-functions
relating to add, delete, modify entries in passwd & group files
Errno is now preserved so output of errc()/warnc() will be less obfuscated
by subsequent errors when reporting the problem.
Add more intelligent error handling when attempting to modify/delete NIS
entries with no corresponding local database entry.
[MFC to stable in a couple of weeks to keep both in sync]
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
will handle lines of any length in /etc/group.
2) Fixed bug with usermod -d not updating user's home
directory.
3) Minor formatting display changes/fixes with *show -P.
sysinstall's new User&group menu will use it, hence it's a 2.2
candidate despite of providing new functionality.
