             Summary: NetworkServerControl API breaks when username or password contains non-ascii characters
                 Key: DERBY-6457
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-6457
             Project: Derby
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Network Server
    Affects Versions: 10.10.1.1
            Reporter: Knut Anders Hatlen


If you pass a non-ascii username/password combination to a NetworkServerControl API command, such as

  java -jar derbynet.jar shutdown -user Bjørn -password Dæhlie

it will hang forever.

The reason is that NetworkServerControlImpl.writeLDString() writes the length of the string in characters, whereas NetworkServerControlImpl.readLDString() expects the length to be in number of bytes.
