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 host and find out who owns the
connection described by "port". Then look in the usermap file under
the usermap *auth_arg and 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;
