With libnss-mysql we are able to login using email addresses etc. In the daily cron "Daily run output" email always get the following: Verifying group file syntax: chkgrp: /etc/group: line 3: '_at_' invalid character Could we modify system to support email addresses as usernames. From my testing it works fine, even with "Daily run output" complaining I can still su to user i added in wheel group. We'd need to fix ckkgrp source, adduser source, and making move to: #define MAXLOGNAME 256 in /usr/src/sys/sys/param.h I beleive OS's like macOSX etc when I read over their source is already setting this to 256. I beleive param.h is only place need to define this, in 8.2 and previous UT_NAMESIZE needed to be set in /usr/src/include/utmp.h as 255 and /usr/src/sys/sys/param.h needed MAXLOGNAME set to UT_NAMESIZE+1, but seems we did away with utmp.h in freebsd 9.0 only needing to set param.h now.
