Solaris 10 sshd + GSSAPI - usernames limited to 8 or 9 chars?

Hi,

We are using the stock solaris 10 sshd daemon and a W2K3 KDC.

Everything works fine except for one of our users who has a ten character username. The user with a long username fails to login from a number of clients, such as another solaris 10 computer, and a SecureCRT terminal emulator on windows. 

When we switch sshd from stock solaris to an OpenSSH version that I've compiled and linked with MIT-Kerberos 1.5, the client can log in.

Has anyone seen anything like this? If anyone is interested I can post output from debug sessions.

I also intend to post this question on a Solaris forum.

Eddie
