MS Logon

Post by Xellnos »

We use (new) MS Logon for authentication.
I just noticed that the authentication window only allows 32 characters in the password field.
Tested in 1.1.9.3, 1.2.0.6, and 1.2.1.1 viewer.
I guess you can consider this a bug report (my password is more than 32 characters, so I can't authenticate).

Not a bug, but a prorocol limitation.

This is not a simple one.
Our mslogon protocol extension expect that we send 32 chars.
Changing the protocol would break compatibility with all previous version.
Thim mean we need to create sub protocols and both server/viewer need to negotiate if the understand >32 passwd.
Also, not all severs support it... so we also naad an extra OS check.

Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003 support passwords up to 28 characters
Windows Vista / 7 / Server 2008: 127 characters
windows 10 , using ms account max 16 chars
windows 10 local account 127 chars
