[jira] [Created] (GUACAMOLE-1081) option to convert usernames to all lowercase

Jason Keltz created GUACAMOLE-1081:
--------------------------------------

             Summary: option to convert usernames to all lowercase
                 Key: GUACAMOLE-1081
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GUACAMOLE-1081
             Project: Guacamole
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Jason Keltz


When the user logs into Guac with parts of their username in uppercase, the login to Guac is successful, but then subsequent login to Linux systems fails because the username is case sensitive.  It would be useful to have an option in Guacamole to convert usernames to lowercase or uppercase before passing on to the systems.

One possible suggestion from Nick on the mailing list was something like this:
 
${GUAC_USERNAME} - Pass through as entered
${GUAC_USERNAME:lower} - Convert string to lower-case
${GUAC_USERNAME:upper} - Convert string to upper-case
 

This would work very well.

I would be likewise happy with a solution that let me set a default somewhere (in my case, all lowercase).
