Re: How to create username with "."

you need to update the setup rpm.

And I think your are using RHEL3 equivelent kernel.

Just update the rpm or use webmin will work.

Hi

When i create username like this
"useradd user.name"
It shows the error message saying that the name contains invalid
characters

Is there any way to create username like that,

When i edit the /etc/useradd, /etc/shadow, /etc/group and /etc/gshadow it
worked fine for me
