[ZendTo] Re: AD Authentication

[Jules]

Hmmm... very odd. In /opt/zendto/config/preferences.php you should have 
a setting like this:
'usernameRegexp'    => '/^([a-zA-Z0-9][a-zA-Z0-9\_\.\-\@]*)$/i',
which allows a "." in the username unless it it the first character in 
the username.

It sounds like some state is getting left behind in the Javascript.

Does it behave the same way for other authentication mechanisms apart 
from AD?

I then changed the user account for user.demo1 to be user_demo1 and tried again; this time it worked fine. Plus all the other accounts work fine. Very weird!!!
