update username related info (concerning gosa.conf)

  
    * The most important thing to add is the template (newstudent or newteacher) and the full name of your user (see image).
    * As you follow the wizard, you will see that GOsa² generates a username automatically based on the real name. It automatically chooses a username that doesn't exist yet, so multiple users with the same full name are not a problem.  Note that GOsa² can generate invalid usernames if the full name contains non-ASCII characters.
-   * If you don't like the generated username you can select another username offered in the drop-down box, but you do not have a free choice here in the wizard. (Username generation can be customized in {{{/etc/gosa/gosa.conf}}}, changing e.g. the default entry {{{idGenerator="{%givenName[3-6]}{%sn[3-6]}"}}} to {{{idGenerator="{%givenName[1]}{%sn[22]}{id!2}"}}} would generate the username `pmuster` for a user "Peter Muster" and `pmuster01` for the next user with the same full name.  The maximum length for usernames in this case would be 25; see {{{man 5 gosa.conf}}} for more details. Backup gosa.conf before editing it!)

    * When the wizard has finished, you are presented with the GOsa² screen for your new user object. Use the tabs at the top to check the completed fields.
  
  After you have created the user (no need to customise fields the wizard has left empty for now), click on the "Ok" button in the bottom-right corner.
