DDSSEC_ — Use standard format for subject name in permissions and identity

Open Closed All
  • Key: DDSSEC_-168
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Real-Time Innovations ( Dr. Gerardo Pardo-Castellote, Ph.D.)
  • Summary:

    The example permissions file has subject name as:

    <subject_name>/C=US/ST=CA/L=Sunnyvale/O=ACME Inc./OU=CTO Office/CN=DDS Shapes Demo/emailAddress=cto@acme.com</subject_name>

    This uses the non-standard notation "/" to separate fields whereas in the X.509 certificates it will be "," this will fore a normalization to compare the subject names.

    It would be better to change that format in the XML so it also uses ","
