I modified source code contained on the src rpm
shadow-20000902-133.src.rpm
of the SuSe 7.3 Release. For other version of the package I think the method
is similiar.
After unpacking the shadow-20000902.tar.bz2 :
1) cd shadow-20000902
2) cd libmisc
3) update the file chkname.c as follow:
3.1) - in the function good_name substitute the line:
if (!*name || !isalpha(*name))
with
if (!*name )
3.2) - in the function check_group_name substitute the line:
if (strlen(name) > 16)
with
if (strlen(name) > 32)
4) Then
cd ..
./configure
make
In the src directory you have the modified useradd e groupadd. As far as I
understand you should be interested at item 3.1 only.

Oggetto: Usernames starting with names
Hi,
In relation to the problem of adding users with names starting with numbers,
you said that you modified the standard "useradd" and "groupadd" commands to
accomplish with it.
Would you mind indicating me how to do it? I think it is no trivial.
Regards,
Rafa Gallego
