[jboss-user] [JBoss Portal] - Re: Enabling CaseInsensitiveness for username

From the code it looks like this option converts the entered name to lowercase and then does the lookup. When using the predefined security mechanism, where the portal creates and maintains the user names, this makes sense, and even works. Since you are validating against an existing database with uppercase names (or did you populate the user table directly from Oracle?), it will not work.
