           Summary: [patch] request charset not honored when parsing
                    username/password
           Product: Tomcat 5
           Version: 5.0.28
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Catalina
        AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


After switching our server from ISO-8859-1 to UTF-8 users with german umlauts in
their name couldnt login anymore using BasicAuthentication.

For me it looks like the org.apache.catalina.authenticator.BasicAuthenticator do
not honor the characterEncoding of the request.

Attached you could find a patch which _should_ fix it, though I havent even
compiled it (just tested within the debugger) as I do not have a tomcat
development environment setup.

If one of the developer could check this out - and - if it makes it into tomcat
- please attach a BasicAuthenticator.class to this bug as drop-in into a tomcat
installation. This would be VERY VERY great.
