Environment
Novell Identity Manager 3.6.1
Novell Identity Manager Driver - Linux and UNIX - Fan Out
Situation
Is there is a way to make the user names sync as lowercase from eDirectory to Linux. Many people don't use the mixed case or upper case when logging into eDirectory because it is not case sensitive. However, Linux is case sensitive.
Resolution
If you change the 2 lines in platformverifyandmapname.sh:
*[0-9a-zA-Z._-]* )
to:
*[0-9a-z._-]* )
Then it should keep everything in lowercase.
to:
*[0-9a-z._-]* )
Then it should keep everything in lowercase.
Additional Information
By default the AIX and Solaris scripts lowercase users id's coming from eDirectory.
