Issue with Active Directory Add new users

Hello,
Happy a new year!
Today I tried to add a user to the system and it doesn’t allow users with a “.” separator, but when I changed it to authenticate with AD it worked. I have some users with the “.” separator and they work, but today it doesn’t allow it with the error below:

“The username field must only contain letters, numbers, dashes, and underscores.”

Users in our AD have the “.” as a separator!

How can I change this validation?

Thanks

You don’t need to create “AD” users in LibreNMS. They just get created automatically at the 1st successful login attempt.
