Description Daniel Tröder

2019-04-08 15:20:26 CEST

The list of allowed special characters in usernames should be configurable.
Currently it is hard coded to the dot.
The default characters are string.ascii_letters + string.digits (a-z a-Z 0-9).

Additional special characters in usernames can now be configured through the configuration key username:allowed_special_chars.
The default is backwards compatible and contains only the dot.
Only dash and underscore can also be used (resulting in the configuration value ".-_"). This is a limitation set by UDM.
None of the special characters is allowed as first or last character of a username.
