Chapter 34 User/Group
34.2.1.1 Rules for User Names
Enter a user name from 1 to 31 characters.
The user name can only contain the following characters:
• Alphanumeric A-z 0-9 (there is no unicode support)
• _ [underscores]
• - [dashes]
The first character must be alphabetical (A-Z a-z), an underscore (_), or a dash (-). Other
limitations on user names are:
• User names are case-sensitive. If you enter a user 'bob' but use 'BOB' when connecting via
CIFS or FTP, it will use the account settings used for 'BOB' not 'bob'.
• User names have to be different than user group names.
• Reserved user names are listed in the following table.
