Oggetto: R: [Samba] Username length
Hi,
I had the same problem, I also needed :
1) the username should begin with a number
2) the group name should be longer than 16 characters.
So I modified the standard "useradd" e "groupadd" (rpm shadow-util ) to
fullfil these requirements.
I hope this can help.
Regards

Oggetto: [Samba] Username length
Is the maximum username length of 8 characters an absolute, or is there a
way around it? I'm migrating an NT-based file server to Samba, and I'd like
to keep my existing username list if at all possible, but many of the login
names exceed 8 characters.
Thank you,
Dale Mirenda

Oggetto: [Samba] Usernames Starting with Numbers
Hi all,
I have a trouble when Windows NT users with usernames starting with numbers
try to connect to my samba server. The reason is that the parameter:
add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd [options] %u
DOES NOT WORK when %u starts with a number.
Is it possible to circumvent this problem?
With kindest regards,
Rafa Gallego
