           Summary: JK Status Worker Security User Case Problem in Windows
           Product: Tomcat 5
           Version: Unknown
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows Server 2003
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Native:JK
        AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


First, thank you for implementing security in JK. I know it was possible to 
secure it before in Apache, but in IIS, JK is run before the NTFS-Rights 
apply. So this is a long awaited feature.

But seeing that this mainly applies to non-apache environments, it is bad that 
the user check done case sensitive.In IIS, especially when working with domain 
Users, User may com in UCase/LCase Domain\User in any combination. Even Cast 
differences in the Username (i.e. First letter capital or not) occour. Windows 
does not care, but JK does. So one can auth against IIS, but still be blocked 
from JK, even with the right user.

In the moment we workaround this with trying to put any combination in the 
properties-file. But this is a hopeless fight.

I understand that you might not be able to simply LCase the username because 
that would lose some compatibility to the unix side. But maybe you can 
introduce a parameter like "worker.jk-manage.casesensitive=True|False" ?
