> Key: JS2-562
> URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JS2-562
> Project: Jetspeed 2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Security
> Affects Versions: 2.0-FINAL
> Environment: Windows 2000 SP4, JDK1.5, Apache-DS
> Reporter: Michael Kearns
> Assigned To: David Sean Taylor
> Fix For: 2.1-dev

> When trying to authenticate against an LDAP server (in this case, Apache-DS from a seperate installation), the authentication failed because the userPassword attribute was not found.
> The attribute exists within LDAP, but the case is different (userpassword). While the schema suggests the specified ID (userPassword) is correct, I believe LDAP is supposedly case-insensitive, and so ideally the attribute comparison should also be.
> The change required is to the getAttribute method within org.apache.jetspeed.security.spi.impl.ldap.LdapUserCredentialDaoImpl, replacing the equals() method with equalsIgnoreCase().
