Underscores in group names not allowed anymore

Hi,

creating groups with underscores in the name leads to following error: "The field 'Name' contains invalid characters!"

In previous versions, this did not happen, instead there were no upper case letters allowed, which are working now.

So existing groups with underscores in the name will now cause problems during editing, and new ones could not be created with the same naming convention.

Regards

With this patch POSIX groups names will follow the same rules as user logins. We need to decide what to do for groups names (ogroups), because they might have even less strict rules than user logins.

To use mixedGroups the change has to be done in admin/groups/class_ogroup.inc as well.

(Putting back to «to be tested» as the change was already done in ogroups)
