The change_username script

[drazhar]

Hi Guys,

Not sure if this is where this should go, but the change_username.sh script (/usr/local/directadmin/scripts/) does not have a check to see if the new username is under 10 characters.

One of the guys here used it with a name 11 characters long and the account disappeared from DA until the username was changed again.

HI All

Just an addition to this. One of the engineers here performed a migration from one of our servers to another, and then changed the username.

The email address of the moved domain then would not work as the home directory had changed and the email settings had not updated

Hello,

Correct, it's a very basic "raw" type script.

You can up the limit here:
