- How do you deal with conflicts ? - What happen when an admin legitimately just use vipw and adds a system user in /etc/passwd instead of one of the other 2 you mention ?
- How do you propose to resolve users from multiple files ?
The answer to all 3 of these: /etc/passwd is writable by the admin, and wins over anything else.
- Are you going to introduce new nss modules ?
Yes, see nss-altfiles.
- Are you going to change pam_unix to lookup from all there files in different ways ?
Why would pam_unix need to be changed? It uses getpwnam() which will be fine, AFAICS.
