http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=24437 mod_auth_ldap doubly-escapes backslash (\) characters in uids Summary: mod_auth_ldap doubly-escapes backslash (\) characters in uids Product: Apache httpd-2.0 Version: 2.0.47 Platform: PC OS/Version: Windows NT/2K Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: Other Component: mod_auth_ldap AssignedTo: [email protected] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] In order to authenticate against ActiveDirectory-style uids with backslashes in them the authentication user name contains this character. Unfortunately the LDAP logs are showing that Apache is over-escaping the backslash -- at least on Windows (2000 SP4, all security updates applied). I suspect this above the LDAP SDK layer and thus applies to all platforms, but I could be proven wrong, of course. This is a serious issue to anyone needing to support use of such (existing) directories. Both workarounds and pointers to code areas to investigate (other than "look at the mod_auth_ldap and/or util_ldap sources" -- I know that much) would be greatly appreciated! --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
