AD integration and punctuation in usernames for 1.2.0rc1

Post by nickds »

Hi - we are currently using 1.1.7 and are considering a move to 1.2.0rc1.

We have "."s in our usernames - format is generally initials.ext, e.g. ab.6056

The version we are using does not allow "." so we use "_" instead.

Will the new versions with AD integration allow us to use "."s in usernames such that we can use our Windows logons unchanged?

Many thanks,

Nick
