Hi Bob,

I suspect you mean the command "useradd".   It will always enforce the
user naming conventions, which basically restricts you to lowercase
letters, numbers, hyphen, and underscore characters.   If you circumvent
these restrictions other tools that make assumptions about usernames
may fail.

Cheers,
Sean
