The first character must be alphabetical (case insensitive, [A-Z a-z]); numeric characters are not allowed as the first character. The username can only contain the following characters: • Alphanumeric A-z 0-9. Unicode usernames are supported with CIFS logins, but not FTP or web configurator logins. • Spaces • _ [underscores] • . [periods] • - [dashes] Other limitations on usernames are: • All leading and trailing spaces are removed automatically. • Multiple spaces within names are converted to a single space. • Usernames are case insensitive. The username cannot be the same (no matter the letter case) as an existing user. For example, if a user exists with the name 'BOB', you cannot create a user named 'bob'. If you enter a user 'bob' but use 'BOB' when connecting via CIFS or FTP, it will use the account settings used for 'bob'. • The username cannot be the same as a system username such as ANONYMOUS-FTP nor be the same as an existing user. Other reserved usernames that are not allowed are: • bin • daemon NAS540 User's Guide 277
