Description Ilya Pavlihin 2014-04-28 10:56:28 UTC
I use a 15 characters password contains upper and lower latin characters, comma and digits for authorisation in Windows AD. 

When i type my password at first time and push check button on first tab - claws say me - successful, but if i click ok, open this dialog again and click check button - i've got error.

When i change my password to 7 characters without comma - all okay.

Does it work if you use 15 character password *without* comma?

The comma is a reserved char for attribute values in LDAP and must be escaped. 

But it also could be the AD is setting some maximum length check on the password.
