[David Bambušek]

Greetings,

thesis with topic "Tool for querying SSSD database". I would be very glad
if anyone, who has some interesting suggestion, information, recommendation
or any clue, that could possibly help me in my work, would email me wih it.
I would really strongly appreciate it.

Thank you all in advance

What is this tool about? What is it supposed to be doing? Is is a
wrapper around ldbsearch? GUI or CLI? Is there any design page?

One thing that I needed today was a mechanism to display complex nested
structures easily. I was debugging a scenario where the user was a
member of 50+ groups and some of them didn't link properly. Seeing which
groups links where would help a lot.

We already have sss_groupshow for the local domain, maybe that would be
a start?
