All the privileges are > preserved after changing the username. > thank you for the reply! yes. i now can reproduce the way YOU made it! and because of that, i can tell you now how exactly you can reproduce this bug! sorry for this long story but here we go: first of all i don't want to change the user-privileges! so this is why i do not open the privileges tab to look at them (i know they are set as i want them). i just change the username and then click on ok. i don't click on the user privileges tab since i don't want to change anything there. i found out if you click enter while the user-privileges tab is active the privileges are saved correctly even when the username is changed. if i do only change the username and then click on okay. then logout - login with the new name, they are lost. so i pray this is also reproducable for you now too :-)! regards! -- make sure that anywhere in your mail the string 'debian' appears. otherwise your message will not end up in my mailbox!
