While using Tomcat and Active Directory, I found a small bug. Normally in
LDAP, you escape certain special characters, one of which being the comma.
This is done by
DN=CN=Doe\, Jane, OU=unit, OU=People
However, when I instructed Tomcat to search for roles by inserting the
distinguished name, no results were found. This is because I found in Active
Directory in an object filter you must put
member=CN=Doe\\, Jane, OU=unit, OU=People or member=CN="Doe, Jane", OU=unit,
OU=People
Does:
member=CN=Doe\2C Jane, OU=unit, OU=People
Also works?
I have written a patch that at the moment can implement either of those two
fixes by encoding the filter. I have tried to find the answer at the LDAP
specifications at http://rfc.sunsite.dk/rfc/rfc2253.html. Is this just
Active Directory messing up? Does my fix seem reasonable? What is the best
method to fix my problems and stay within LDAP specifications?
Any feedback or suggestions are welcomed.
Thanks, Jessica
