Hi, I have read the adduser man page which states the following:
"You can change UT_NAMESIZE in <utmp.h> and recompile the world; people have done this and it works, but you will have problems with any precompiled programs, or source that assumes the 8-character name limit and NIS." I have had a hard time finding examples of anyone who has actually increased the username length to something like 64+ characters though. I am wondering what if anything (besides NIS) might break on a freeBSD box running virtual domains with postfix/courier/apache/squirrelmail/webmin/etc. Has anyone actually done this and if so have you had any problems? The reason I'm looking at doing this is to support [EMAIL PROTECTED] style usernames (POP/IMAP/Webmail/usermin) without using a MySQL or LDAP system for authentication. Thanks, Andrew _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
