Yes, use --force. That tells authselect that it is OK to overwrite your
manual configuration. Otherwise, authselect is careful to not overwrite
files that have been edited manually.
Sigh, authselect is even more complicated than I thought. I can't simply
do "sudo authselect apply-changes --force". I need to do "sudo
authselect select $something --force" first, according to the man page.
And I have no idea what $something is. Can you please provide an exact
set of commands to run? Thanks.
apply-changes only works if you have valid authselect configuration (no
manual changes) and you edit /etc/authselect/user-nsswitch.conf or one
of the selected profile template.
If you need to restore previous configuration you can either use
backup-restore (if there is any backup, see backup-list) or you can use
'authselect current --raw' which will print you what authselect command
line was used.
authselect select `authselect current --raw` --force
The default in Fedora is 'authselect select sssd' with optional
with-fingerprint and with-mkhomedir.
