Usernames with UPPER case

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Help,
I am trying to set up samba. I need to incorporate a raft of users with mixed case in their username. Linux will not allow be to do this. Is this an absolute - do I need to have all Winx users change their usernames or am I just hosed?


I have tried to enter the user as lower case, e.g. 'sue' and then 'usermod -l sue Sue' but I get an error saying that 'Sue' does not exist.

Helpful hints, pointers appreciated.


TIA


Bob
