Fedora Core 3 and Samba
...rying it at the command line, it
doesn't work there and give the error:
root@server(~): useradd newer\$
useradd: invalid user name 'newer$
Upon speculation we believe this might be to bring Fedora/Redhat user utils
in line with POSIX standards. Under POSIX this is the Portable Filename
Charcterset which is as follows:
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
0123456789._-
Notice no '$'. But the standard goes on to say extended characters are
allowed, but it will result in noncompliant use...
This is behaving this way on a test server and the latest Redhat...
