LDAP has several standard attributes: cn - Common Name, i.e. public name givenName - aka Christian name (where that applies) sn - surname AFAIK, it's not possible to set sn or givenName to the empty string, nor to drop either attribute. Normally the cn equals givenName 'space' sn Thus a public name that consists of a single word causes issues. I think that is why Infra created the account as they did. (AFAICT, the account request from Whimsy only used the public name) This is really a question for Infra as to how to handle persons who have a single word as their public name - or indeed their full legal name (such people do exist) Whimsy can then be updated accordingly. In the meantime, your Common Name (cn) can be updated to just 'Gleb' if you so wish. > Thanks, > Gleb.
