adduser vs useradd
Hi all
I have a problem with adding users in the form of user@domain.com . If I
use 'useradd' as follows
useradd user@domain.com
It will work most of the time but sometimes it fails with bad username.
So I tried using adduser --force-badname but this always rejects user
names with an '@' symbol.
adduser --force-badname user@domain.com
I am running 'testing'
Haven't seen Toy Story yet so can never remember the code names :-(
Does anybody have any suggestions or comments to overcome this problem.
I have found no other problems with the user names with @ symbols that I
have managed to create.
Thanks in advance,
Kind regards
