----------------------------------
Summary: Add mode to allow KerberosString's to contain UTF-8 for
MSFT KDC interop
Key: DIRKRB-595
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRKRB-595
Project: Directory Kerberos
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: changepw
Affects Versions: 2.0.0-RC1
Reporter: Griff James
By definition KerberosString's are supposed to be in the range 0x20-0x7F.
MSFT's kerberos implementation breaks this rule and allows Kerberos strings to
contain UTF-8 characters for I18n.
Java's Kerberos implementation has MSFT compatibility mode which is enabled by
setting the system property "sun.security.krb5.msinterop.kstring" to "true".
This allows KerberosString's to contain UTF-8.
The attached patch is a proposed change to add the same support to the
kerberos-code jar to allow the change password protocol to work for users with
UTF-8 chars in their principal name.
