Today, usernames are case sensitive. This can cause some problems in for example a kerberos environment (such as a Windows domain, in my case), because the system usernames are case insensitive. So if I log in to my workstation as "Maghag" I cannot connect to postgresql, because my postgresql username is "maghag".
I would like to see a GUC variable to enable case insensitive usernames. Would a patch for such a thing be accepted? (or if the functionality alraedy exists, a pointer would be much appreciated) //Magnus ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 8: explain analyze is your friend
