Yup I have those on the password file.. I'm able to logon from a Linux client
when the username is either 'agi', 'Alec' or 'Alec Joseph'. On the Windows
client, however, only the 'agi' (which is the Unix username) will work.
I stumbled upon this only because 'wing' asked me if she can use 'Jo Annelyn'
instead. I thought I would be straightforward to use the username mapping
because on the Linux workstation it just works...
I'm clearly missing something...
Thanks.
