Re: tomcat ldap authentication problem
I think that better is for userID and passwords don't use national characters. In Latvia we time after time have similar problems ...

Re: tomcat ldap authentication problem
we have tried it with the following.. IE6 and 7 on windows IE6 on linux (using ie4linux and wine) Firefox 2.0.12 on windows and on linux all behave the same.. all the tools we have to get information out from the ldap gives us the username out in utf-8 correctly so for me it looks like it is stored in utf-8 in ldap.. and since now all our system is configured for utf-8 it is strange that this 1 part (the jndirealm) looks like it is using iso-8859-1 .-( Antonio Petrelli skrev: 2008/2/20, Christian Andersson [EMAIL PROTECTED]: all our html pages uses the utf-8 encoding, using slapcat and looking at the content the data inside openldap seems to be using utf-8 (the output from slapcat is at least utf-8,but I don't know if slapcat converts anything) This might be a shot in the dark, but what client browser are you using?

Re: tomcat ldap authentication problem
ofcourse, it would be better, but unfourtunally it is not up to me to enforce this policy, and we already have a lot of users with those character in both username and/or password.. we had the system up and running before but after switching the website over from ISO-8859-1 to UTF-8 it i sno longer working, the strange part is though that with every tool I canuse to check what is in the ldap, it say it is in utf-8 and we cannot go back o ISO-8859-1 either..
