Subject: [ActiveDir] UPPER case for username
We are in the process of bringin in a couple hundred users from a Novell Groupwise system to our AD 2003 + Exchange 2003 system. Our AD is in Windows 2003 Native mode for forest and domain. Because of the need to integrate Groupwise and Exchange, we need to use Microsoft Exchange Connector for Groupwise (and Quest Migration Wizard). The problem is, the administrator of the Novell Groupwise has set their standard username to be in UPPER CASE, eg: JDOE, instead of lower case eg: jdoe, and Exchange Connector for Groupwise will create the username with the same case it is now in Groupwise. This means in our AD domain, we will have a couple hundred users who use UPPER CASE for their username. Now the questions are: - Will this cause any problem with any of Microsoft product in the future (eg: Sharepoint). - Is there a way to change the username in CAPS to be in lower letter, once Exchange connector for Groupwise creates the user?
