Subject: [PATCH] bugfix for local user
Date: Tue, 02 Mar 2004 02:11:37 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20040302021137.GA6885@vrfy.org> (raw)

While moving the local user logic in it's own function I missed to
change the "secure" string macro. We copy only the first 3 bytes
of the username. Guess why I didn't notice it :)

thanks,
Kay
