Customers are using Unicode characters umlauts (ö,ä,ü) in group names and this
creates problems with NFS ID Mapping. Groups with umlauts will be redirected to
the group NFS "nobody".
This patch deactivate the ASCII characters check. It's maybe more like a temporary fix and I think it would be nicer to
adjust the check to support Unicode characters instead to deactivate the check.
