            Bug ID: 277963
           Summary: Increase MAXLOGNAME from 33 to 65
           Product: Base System
           Version: CURRENT
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: kern
          Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: mkfong8808@gmail.com

With several different situations such as different server's geo locations,
different network structure, different level of login-usage, the complexity=
 of
username had been increased these days.

There are many cases where users (customers) want to create login name > 32
characters.

Can we have the MAXLOGNAME increased from 33 to 65?
