Long usernames

2007-12-24 20:09:00

Hi managers!

I've searched the archives and been scanning Google for any input on
this issue but got nothing that satisfied. So, my questions are...

* Is there support for usernames longer then 8 characters in Solaris 2.6
and greater? (It would seem it is supported by passwd, how about the os?)
* What are the most obvius problems with this? I know things like last &
utmp/wtmp might break.

How about nfs? ftpd? Perhaps I will need a new ftp daemon for this to
work.

Thanks! Sorry if I missed something in the archives.
