I've looked at CustomerCreateAccount.dtl in an attempt to create a login page that separates Login from Email. I noticed that there was a "Login" section that had been commented out. I reinstated it, changing value="$Data{"UserEmail"}" to value="$Data{"UserLogin"}".
Sorry, the field name is wrong. Change it to:
[...] <tr> <td>$Text{"Login"}: </td> <td> </td> </tr> [...]
-=> name="Login"! And is should work.
That's what I had. I omitted to mention that I had changed from 'name="Email"' to 'name="Login"' too. I created two users, and both Logins came out as the email address. Without changing anything, I've tried again, and this time the Login is what I entered in the Login box. C'est la vie.
Jim, do you have all your customer-users in a central database or ldap directory? This would save you a lot of time and customer-user questions, because they don't need to create a new account and they don't need to set a new password.
We authenticate our departmental Linux logins against the campus Windows Active Directory using the Linux pam_krb5 module. Does that mean there is hope? I don't actually know much about the Windows AD. Jim
