RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:
After upgrading from 0.7.5-3 to 0.7.5-7 login names with only 2 digits
are not seen anymore
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
0.7.5-7
How reproducible:
Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. create a 2 digits account on ldap server
2. try to login
3.
Actual results:
unknown user
Expected results:
login...
Additional info:
downgrading to nss-pam-ldapd-0.7.5-3 solve the problem.
The default value for the "validnames" setting as we added it expects names to be at least three characters long, though this is relaxed a bit in subsequent versions to a minimum of two. Setting
validnames /^[a-z0-9._@$()][a-z0-9._@$() \~-]*[a-z0-9._@$()~-]$/i
in /etc/nslcd.conf should work around this until we catch up with it.
