I do not think this is a real bug. It looks like you had some inconsistency in the configuration before the backup. Can you still reproduce the problem if you call 'authconfig --disableldap --update' before the backup? If I call disableldap, I can't reproduce the issue. But this is the state before backup.I don't see a problem in configuration. /etc/sysconfig/authconfig doesn't exist [test]authconfig --test caching is disabled nss_files is always enabled nss_compat is disabled nss_db is disabled nss_hesiod is disabled hesiod LHS = "" hesiod RHS = "" nss_ldap is disabled LDAP+TLS is disabled LDAP server = "ldap://127.0.0.1/" LDAP base DN = "dc=example,dc=com" nss_nis is disabled NIS server = "" NIS domain = "" nss_nisplus is disabled nss_winbind is disabled SMB workgroup = "MYGROUP" SMB servers = "" SMB security = "user" SMB realm = "" Winbind template shell = "/bin/false" SMB idmap range = "16777216-33554431" nss_sss is disabled by default nss_wins is disabled nss_mdns4_minimal is disabled DNS preference over NSS or WINS is disabled pam_unix is always enabled shadow passwords are enabled password hashing algorithm is sha512 pam_krb5 is disabled krb5 realm = "EXAMPLE.COM" krb5 realm via dns is disabled krb5 kdc = "kerberos.example.com" krb5 kdc via dns is disabled krb5 admin server = "kerberos.example.com" pam_ldap is disabled LDAP+TLS is disabled LDAP server = "ldap://127.0.0.1/" LDAP base DN = "dc=example,dc=com" LDAP schema = "rfc2307" pam_pkcs11 is disabled use only smartcard for login is disabled smartcard module = "" smartcard removal action = "" pam_fprintd is enabled pam_winbind is disabled SMB workgroup = "MYGROUP" SMB servers = "" SMB security = "user" SMB realm = "" pam_sss is disabled by default credential caching in SSSD is enabled SSSD use instead of legacy services if possible is enabled IPAv2 is disabled IPAv2 domain was not joined IPAv2 server = "None" IPAv2 realm = "None" IPAv2 domain = "None" pam_cracklib is enabled (try_first_pass retry=3 type=) pam_passwdqc is disabled () pam_access is disabled () pam_mkhomedir or pam_oddjob_mkhomedir is disabled (umask=0077) Always authorize local users is enabled () Authenticate system accounts against network services is disabled [test]cat /etc/nsswitch.conf # # /etc/nsswitch.conf # # An example Name Service Switch config file.

Frankly I do not see this as a issue worth complicating the code with trying to workaround it. Note that normally the /etc/sysconfig/authconfig will always exist because anaconda runs authconfig during the install. Yes, good point. restore will not delete the previously non-existent backup!
I think this is the problem of authconfig, it doesn't delete the files.
Delete may be sometimes problem, I know.
But maybe other parameter like 'cleanandrestore' will be useful because authconfig can create some files but doesn't delete ('restore') them.
