summary: Increase space allocated to auto-login username
class: semi-bug: This might or might not be a bug, depending on your precise definition of what a bug is.
difficulty: fun: Just needs tuits, and not many of them.

Trivial fix: PuTTY truncates the `auto-login username' field to about 32 characters. Some sites have taken to allocating usernames of the form username@verrylongdomainname.org, so we've received some requests to increase this.

Now increased to ~100 chars.
