Version beta 5.6a

I'm trying to add users to Tower as I want to have my media drives read only for everything except for me.  Hoping to make it so the kids can't delete all the music, pictures and movies.

 

I have user shares enabled and they are working fine now.

 

I go to user tab and hit add user, fill in the info, but the user does not appear.  The syslog says:

 

May  1 07:38:27 Tower logger: useradd: invalid user name 'David'

May  1 07:38:27 Tower emhttp: shcmd (86): chpasswd <<< David:"*****"

May  1 07:38:27 Tower emhttp: _shcmd: shcmd (86): exit status: 1

May  1 07:38:27 Tower emhttp: shcmd (87): smbpasswd -L -s -a David <<< "*****"$'\n'"*****"

May  1 07:38:27 Tower emhttp: _shcmd: shcmd (87): exit status: 1

May  1 07:38:27 Tower emhttp: shcmd (88): cp /etc/passwd /etc/shadow /etc/samba/private/smbpasswd /boot/config

 

I've read where it says to enable user share security, but can't find anything in the web page that does that.

 

What am I missing?

 

thanks,

dave

Feeling foolish as I just figure it out.

 

The user name has to be all lower case.  If I change the name to david instead it worked just fine.  Something like this would be helpful in the manual.
