Is it possible to have username greater then 8 char.
I am running RH 7.1 - 7.3 using nis for auth.

We are going to a one  card system using ldap within the next year. Our 
mail system lives on a
Penguin RH 7.3 box and file storage is on Dell RH 7.3 box.

The ID we were planning on using is 9 char which comes from our Business 
system software.

If you require more info please let me know.
Any thoughts and help would be great.

David.

Have you tried?  NIS will support anything thats valid in a *nix system 
authentiaction.
