We need to have users login using user@host.com . I can make usernames in this format if I edit the password file directly. The problem I run into is that usernames can only be 17 chars. I ran into this url http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=3D60800+0+archive/2001/freeb= s d-isp/20010114.freebsd-isp I did changes the values that it talked about, but now how can we have longer than 17 char usernames? I recompiled the kernel, but How do I get this into effect. Any help would be greatly appreciated. =20 Thanks Noah Davidson To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
