Error: Illegal username (error code illegal_username) (2-32):

[John E Murphy]

I am trying to get the signup server to work and I keep getting the error
above.  I am using freeside 1.4.0 on Redhat 8.0 with mysql 4.0.12 for the
back end database and Apache 2.0 as the webserver.  The username test should
be acceptable but it, along with any other name is rejected but the account
can be added from the freeside web console.  This error occurs with all the
combinations of legal name options from the configuration page as well as
all username verify options from the signup configuration sections.

Starting fs_signup_server: done.
