The easiest thing would be to place the usernames in lowercase in the setup.txt file (the load is done directly by Hibernate and thus the validateUserNameCase is not used). Or you could extend the existing IdentifyLoginModule and use uppercase names. All you would have to provide is the getUserName method. Its in jboss-epp-4.3-src/portal/modules/identity/identity/src/main/org/jboss/portal/identity/auth/IdentityLoginModule.java in the source download.
