RE: Fwd: General Feedback

Hi Vijayalakshmi,

We are trying to reproduce this issue locally so that we can help you. Can you tell us the steps to reproduce? What client are you using ? Have you tried using some other client? By client I mean CIMClient, cimcli or wbemexec.

I'm guessing it is on Windows OS since the user is "Administrator".

Considerring that you are building yourself from sources ,
I guess g11n and l18n support in pegasus is done through ICU.
May be you can try with ICU version lesser than 3.6.

Hi Devchandra,

Currently we have not building our code with any ICU version. I do not see the environment variable
PEGASUS_HAS_ICU defined on my system.

Thanks,
Viji

Hi,

We are using the Open Pegasus version 2.10 in our application.
When we login to the application, we authenticate the username with the cimserver Authentication

In order to support Russian and German users, how can we authenticate usernames with special characters ?
Currently any username with special character is not being authenticated correctly. It is returned as "unauthorised" though a valid user is present.

Here is an extract of the cimserver.trc and log for a German username - Ädministrator

We have changed the Accept-Language header to accept German language and I ran this test on a German OS.

I tried adding usernames with special characters using cimauth and cimuser applications .It fails with an unknown exception.
Am I missing something ? Any help would be appreciated.
