Login is most definitely case sensitive. And, like I said, upper case characters in a username cause problems for more than just useradd/login.
It calls my attention that my print manual of Red Hat Linux Advanced Server 2.1 in page 63, Section 3.20: Account Configuration, they give the following example as a username:
Account Name Full Name
Angel Angel Webb
(Notice the capital "A").
Oh, well :)
(However, I always do use lowercase login names, anyway).
Oh, I didn't intimate that it wouldn't/shouldn't work...just that it's not a good idea, unless the server admin wants things to break. <wink>
