Bruce Schuchardt commented on GEODE-4450:
-----------------------------------------
This feature was accidentally broken by [~jinmeiliao] in her fix for
GEODE-1571, SHA 39c56843bdaa67f0df4dbbb9edc096e8cb4e12e6. That was on 30 june
2016. If there had been tests for this feature that change would have caused
them to fail.

> Key: GEODE-4450
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-4450
> Project: Geode
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: client/server
> Reporter: Bruce Schuchardt
> Priority: Major
>
> Having found that there are no tests for the security-client-dhalgo setting I
> modified a test to use it. The client/server handshake in the subscription
> thread (cache client updater) hung on the server side trying to read client
> credentials.
> I tracked this down to CacheClientNotifier.registerClient, which sends a 105
> byte to the client along with some other bytes in its writeMessage() method.
> The client isn't expecting this message and interprets the 105 as a failure
> to register with the server. The client then abandons the handshake and the
> server hangs until its read times out.
> See also GEODE-4353, which wants to deprecate this broken feature.
