.NET 0-8 clients fail to connect with some valid passwords
----------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: QPID-3158
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-3158
             Project: Qpid
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Dot Net Client, Java Broker
    Affects Versions: 0.5, 0.11
         Environment: Qpid .NET 0-8 client
            Reporter: Keith Wall
            Assignee: Keith Wall


There is a defect in the CRAM MD5 Hex SASL mechanism within the Qpid broker 
that prevents some passwords from being used to connect from the Qpid 0-8 .Net 
client. The defect does not affect authentications using the same password from 
the Java client as it connects using a different SASL mechanism.

The defect seemingly affects about 30% of all possible passwords. It shows no 
bias towards strong/weak passwords as the defect in the mechanism is after the 
cleartext has been MD5 digested.

The client sees a 503 exception (Apache.Qpid.Client.AMQAuthenticationException: 
not allowed) from the new AMQConnection(QpidConnectionInfo) constructor.
