Hey, just thought I would let everyone know that we had no problems upping the limit to 16. All we did was: Make UT_NAMESIZE in <utmp.h> 16. Make MAXLOGNAME in <sys/param.h> 16. Add eight more spaces between the "USER" and "TTY" fields at line 228 of src/usr.bin/w/w.c (Just for cosmetics). Also, if you use the adduser script, up the check for length. Nothing has broken (yet). -BD On Sat, 28 Dec 1996, Jordan K. Hubbard wrote: > > I have been watching the discussion on several of the lists about having > > >8 char usernames.
