Hi All, 

I am trying to add a user name with the pw command and get the "name too
long" error after 15 or 16 characters. However, I also use Webmin which has
allowed me to use much longer user names. Is there a switch or setting I am
missing?

Example:
pw adduser longdomain-henry2 -w random -d "/home/longdomain/henry2" -g
nogroup -s "/sbin/nologin" -c "henry two" -h 0

Suggestions?


TIA


Steve
