We have problems with user-ids containing german characters 
(so-called 'Umlaute'), eg. 'ÖÄÜ'

HttpServletRequest.getRemoteUser() returns only the string up-to
the first umlaut, eg. for user 'MMÄHHH' we get only 'MM'.

Our environment is:
Tomcat 3.2.1 + mod_jk + Apache 1.3.19

Authentification is done by apache via mod_auth_mysql, 
apache-access-log shows correct user-id.

IMHO full 8bit charset should be supported by (at least) basic-auth. 

Any ideas or comments?


Thanks,
