Hi admins,

My windows collegues built a new name convetions for usernames . I have
to reproduce this on hp-ux environment.

I tryed the following in /etc/passwd:

     i08183:7JxxJTH4bFHtw:119:201:Soltermann
Paul,,647,:/home/i08183:/usr/bin/ksh
soltermp:7JxxJTH4bFHtw:119:201:Soltermann
Paul,,647,:/home/i08183:/usr/bin/ksh

a short test shows that our application accept both usernams (for
transitional period) , are there any big downsites to consider ?

kind regards
