Hallo,

in many expamples it is proposed to take UPPER letters for machine  
accounts.

Making machine accounts is related to "useradd", and in some  
distributions (p.e. Mandriva, slackware) this program doesn't allow  
UPPER letters (the problem is related to some terminal programs. p.e.  
"agetty").

Is it necessary to take UPPER letters for machine accounts?

Viele Gruesse!
Helmut
