>             Project: Derby
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: JDBC, Security
>    Affects Versions: 10.0.2.0, 10.0.2.1, 10.1.1.0, 10.1.2.1, 10.1.3.1, 10.2.1.6, 10.2.2.0, 10.3.1.4, 10.4.0.0
>            Reporter: Daniel John Debrunner
>
> The documentation for the property derby.user.userName says "User names are SQL92Identifiers and can be delimited." and has examples with delimited identifiers.
> For a regular identifier (non-quoted) the user name to password mapping is not normalized so that the user name is upper-case, this causes login failures when a user name is provided that matches the normalized name, but does not match the value in the property name.
> derby.user.dan=password
> Logging in with user name dan works, but DAN or Dan will not.  Note that with any of these user names provided to JDBC, the SQL CURRENT_USER will return DAN.
> jdbc:derby:db;user=dan  // ok
> jdbc:derby:db;user=Dan //not ok
> jdbc:derby:db;user=DAN // not ok
> Note that if the user name is normalized then the scheme would have to deal with this situation:
> derby.user.dan=passwordOne
> derby.user.DAN=passwordTwo
> These two properties refer to the same user, but two passwords are being defined.
> Test case in AuthenticationTest with this bug number.
