[Fedora-directory-users] Re: Username Case Sensitivity

> Do you need usernames to be case sensative, or do you need them to be all lowercase? Very different thing - if you need them to be case sensative, you can do one of the things I mentioned above. If you need them to be strictly lower case, whatever you use to create users in the directory needs to validate usernames and only put in usernames that are lower case - i.e. create a custom web front end in php, perl, etc for managing users. When it creates new user entries, have that interface lowercase usernames before putting it in the uid attribute and creating the user entry. Can you expand a bit on what your application is or why it needs this? What about your application, environment, etc is driving a need for case sensative uid's or lowercase uids. Is it an issue of syncing with another environment that has these requirements/format, etc? If we knew more about what is driving this need, we may be able to provide more useful advise or suggestions. - Jeff
