> Log-in name should be limited to a maximum length of 8 characters. If
> a installer enters a log-in name of greater than 8 characters the install
> fails. Pretty straight forward validation to check for, only issue is
> the new error string. As string freeze has not been reached yet, I'll
> leave it up to Frank et all to decide the correct content of the string.

> Currently :
> Log-in name must cannot be greater than 8 characters
>
> In general though I'd like to see this kind of validation moved into
> the orchestrator, and not contained within the GUI.
