Hi All,

I'm having a problem with user roles in gradm. When I add user roles with usernames longer than 30 characters, the usernames are just cut at character 30 and gradm complaints that the username doesn't exist. Because I am using domain names for usernames some of them are longer than 30 characters.

I looked in the gradm source myself, but couldn't find where this behaviour of gradm is caused. Is there something what could be done about this (except using shorter usernames )?

Thnx in advance.

I'll look into it.

The latest version of gradm should fix this issue. I've extended the limit to 64 characters. Is that ok?

Hey spender,

I noticed that all the changes for changing this from 30 to 64 happen in files that are processed by yaac (bison). Is it possible to make this a configurable variable instead and have it defined in the Makefile? I've never used bison before so I don't know
