>Release: FreeBSD 4.0-CURRENT i386
>Organization:
None
>Environment:
FreeBSD-current
>Description:
rmuser complains about non-alphanumeric characters if the
username you attempt to delete contains capital letters. This
causes problems for sites which attempt to call PPP users
"Pfoo" and SLIP users "Sfoo" (such as an ISP run by a friend
of mine :-)
>How-To-Repeat:
bsd# rmuser Pfoo
>Fix:
I'm happy to commit this myself; just getting it into the PR
system so that anyone else who searches for it later will see
that it has been fixed on this date.
I'll commit it later tonight then close the PR.
