Good Day People,

I have read through a few forum answers about the domain starting with a number is not allowed. This presents a problem since our company name starts with a number as well as the AD domain. This is not something that can be changed. Is there any work around for this? Some say it is just a display variable but i can clearly see from the logs that it is using the value to try and login to the AD server

This is what I see in the logs after changing the AD value to a word instead of the number e.g.
Code:
ad: FOURGROUP.ORG
        domain 4group.org

Code:
user=riaantest@FOURGROUP.ORG

Pretty much every system we have is setup using SSSD or some other method to use active directory as a PAM source.

Any ways to solve this?
 
I have figured out my issue. it does work (with effort). But the username is case sensitive. Anyway to fix this?
