Curious - - is it for email purposes? The reason I ask is if they company doesn't want ateodosijevic coming up in email - that's a simple change of the DISPLAY NAME in Exchange.
Just trying to come up with alternatives as I am not aware of any 3rd party tool to breakdown the 20 character restriction. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of George Arezina Sent: Wednesday, October 15, 2003 8:27 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Username Yes, Company rule does state that it must be first name followed by last name! -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Craig Cerino Sent: Wednesday, October 15, 2003 14:21 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] How about ateodosijevic? If the A is a common enough name/initial that there are two in the company (or 3 or 4) I would then move toaMIDDLENAME INITIAL teodosijevic. If by chance they have the same first AND middle name I would go with aMIDDLEINITIAL teodosijevic1 then aMIDDLEINITIAL teodosijevic2. All above example are still below 20 characters. Is there a company rule that says you MUST use the full first name? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of George Arezina Sent: Wednesday, October 15, 2003 7:47 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [ActiveDir] Username Hi people, Can anyone tell me if there is a way to expand the number of characters I can use to create a username in W2K AD. Most people over in Serbia have long first names and last names. I ran into a problem when creating a username that was longer than 20 characters long. My example is as follows, andjelka.teodosijevic W2K AD would create her username as andjelka.teodosijevi without the c at the end. �� George Arezina BA, A+, Net+, MCSE 2000 Information Technology Consultant National Bank of Serbia Pop Lukina 7-9, 11000 Belgrade.
