Hi Ian,

I installed "debian" and I'm really impressed. Thats the way to go.
Unfortunatly "adduser" doesn't check if the username is less than 9 
characters.
We need something like

if (length(@names)) {              # username must be less than 9 chars
    print " the username must be less than 9 chars "
    exit 1;
}

in "/usr/sbin/adduser"


Regards
Winfried
