Lionel,

What do you mean that the account is not actually built?

One of the servers that I am a sys admin of has accounts with periods in it.
We do not use LDAP authentication with it though, so I don't know if that
is your problem or not.

On the desktop - MacOS X
In the server room - Linux
Windows? In the trash?
