unable to signin as a user having name, same as a group name

[majofrancis]

I tried to login as a newly created user named xyz. There is also a group named xyz. But I am unable to login. First I thought the problem was occuring since there is already a group of the same name as the user. However when I tried the same with other groups I am able to login.

Also if  I used some other user name like xyz_1 or something instead of xyz, it is working fine. And the problem is only with user xyz and group xyz. Could someone pls help me?

(The business wants me to stick with that particular user name)

Hi Majo.

I just tested this in my local server and worked fine, having the user in the group with the same name or not. What do you see in your log files when this user try to login? You should see a message with more details about the why the user was not able to log in.
