I have a problem: We works with a Sun machine, with the Solaris System V. We need now create all the Sun users in a machine with Free Bsd, but the Free Bsd don't accept user names longers than 8 characters !!! We'd resolved the problem with the aliases file, but it is not enough for us, because there are some problems with the mail, not for send, but for recall. Can we create users with more than 8 characters??? The FreeBsd version is: 2.1, and runs in a Pentium PC. Thank-you very much! -- --------------------------------------------------- Juan Emilio Llor Tel. 93 - 423 08 18 mailto:llor@nexus.es Fax. 93 - 325 48 72 http://www.nexus.es Nexus Comunicaciones, S.A.
