Hi, I did not see anything like this in the servers directory. But I did find it in the auth_browser_req.xml file as mentioned earlier:
auth_browswer_req.xml: <input> <name>ADDITIONAL_ATTRIBUTE_COUNTRY</name> <label>Country</label> <type>textfield</type> <charset>UTF8_LETTERS</charset> <value>$DATA::C</value> <minlen>3</minlen> <required>NO</required> </input> I did change it to 2 in the template version and ran configuration_etc.sh, but there is still no change. It is telling me that if I have any entry in that field, it must be at least 3 chars long. Ironically, I have been able to get around this by not putting anything since it is set to "not-required" (you would think this would be required). Thanks again!!! John A.
