Hi,
I wanted to increase the length of user name (FreeBSD 2.2.7).
I changed value of UT_NAMESIZE (in /usr/include/utmp.h) to 12 and 'made world'
but this brought no result. Moreover constant UT_NAMESIZE returned
to its previous value - 8.
I have one question else. Constant MAXLOGNAME has default value 12.
Is it possible to set max. length of user name greater then 12 at all?
Sincerely 
Piotr Wozniak
