Allow kerberos name and username case sensitivity to be specified from
postgresql.conf. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Here's an updated version of the patch, with the following changes: 1) No longer uses "service name" as "application version". It's instead hardcoded as "postgres". It could be argued that this part should be backpatched to 8.0, but it doesn't make a big difference until you can start changing it with GUC / connection parameters. This change only affects kerberos 5, not 4. 2) Now downcases kerberos usernames when the client is running on win32. 3) Adds guc option for "krb_caseins_users" to make the server ignore case mismatch which is required by some KDCs such as Active Directory. Off by default, per discussion with Tom. This change only affects kerberos 5, not 4. 4) Updated so it doesn't conflict with the rendevouz/bonjour patch already in ;-) Magnus Hagander
