Re: periods in user names (was /usr/afsws/etc/uss)

[Tony_Mauro]

If I'm understanding correctly what several people have pointed out,
standard Kerberos allows periods in user names.  I believe that the
restrictions mentioned on the `pts createuser' page date from a time
when many fewer AFS admins used standard Kerberos instead of the AFS
Authentication Server.  So it is probably less the case that I need to
copy the information from the `pts createuser' page to other pages,
than that I need to figure out what the restrictions (if any)
currently are.
