Case sensitivity

There seems to be a general issue here with usernames.

PG creates only lower case usernames. I am happy that if  usEr can't type, it's
his problem but I have a definite problem with Identd authentication from an NT
client (or ident server whichever you choose )  which insists on pretty-printing
the identd response.

I have therefore hacked my  code in auth.c. This seems to be of no other
consequence but I am not a C programmer nor did I have time to check it out
elsewhere.

I may be masking another, more general, issue but this does for me ! Can we get
it or equivalent in future releases please ?

Regards.

BTW The actaul code works - this is a cut&paste.

*--------------------------------------------------------------------------- Talk to the ident server on the remote
hostand find out who owns the connection described by "port".  Then look in the usermap file under the usermap
*auth_argand see if that user is equivalent to Postgres user *user.
 
 Return STATUS_OK if yes.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------*/bool        checks_out;bool
ident_failed;
/* We were unable to get ident to give us a username */char        ident_username[IDENT_USERNAME_MAX + 1];
!!!!!!!!!    char*        c = ident username;                          

/* The username returned by ident */
ident(raddr->sin_addr, laddr->sin_addr,      raddr->sin_port, laddr->sin_port,      &ident_failed, ident_username);
if (ident_failed)    return STATUS_ERROR;

|||||||    while (*c) { *c++ |= 0x20;}
verify_against_usermap(postgres_username, ident_username, auth_arg,                       &checks_out);
return checks_out ? STATUS_OK : STATUS_ERROR;
}
