Issue regarding CIMServerDiscovery.lookup() method

Hi,

Our application uses Pegasus SLP APIs to discover the CIMOMs in a network. This method works correctly when invoked from a Linux machine. However, on some Windows machines it has been seen that the method throws the exception "The byte sequence starting at index 3936 is not valid UTF-8 encoding" and subsequently fails to return the CIMOM list.

When I run "slptool" from Linux (I don't have a Windows version of it) and look at the output URL list, I don't see any invalid characters.

Has anyone faced a similar issue anytime? If so, what is the work around? How can we identify the URL which contains the invalid character, so that we can isolate it from the network and proceed with testing?

Regards,
Hitha V
