[Darran Lofthouse (Jira)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFCORE-4582?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13765015#comment-13765015 ] 

Darran Lofthouse commented on WFCORE-4582:
------------------------------------------

Ok the add-user script is used to set up the initial users that connect to the application server for management using both HTTP and SASL authentication so these scenarios will also need testing before changes can be accepted to the add-user utility.

> On a fresh a Wildfly install (tested on 11.0.0.Final and 17.0.0.Final) I cannot create application users with underscores in the user name:
> {noformat}

>  b) Application User (application-users.properties)
> (a): b
> Enter the details of the new user to add.
> Using realm 'ApplicationRealm' as discovered from the existing property files.
> Username : user_name
>  * Error *
> WFLYDM0028: Username must be alphanumeric with the exception of the following accepted symbols (",", "-", ".", "/", "=", "@", "\")
> Username (user_name) :
> {noformat}
> We use basic authentification to restrict access to our applications, and expect usernames in the format {{<prefix>\_<suffix>}} with {{<prefix>}} being a sequence of plain letters (a-z), followed by an underscore ("\_") and a number as {{<suffix>}}.
> This is possible with WebSphere and even Tomcat, but actually not in Wildfly.
