@abh3 Thanks for coming back to this! In fact, I have not found a workaround, but the issue has not been "pressing" enough in the past two years so I have used the XRootD protocol to access in case the individual certs had to be used. Going back to your original questions, I think: * The restriction not to apply `spacechar` to `=` or `*` can be lifted — at least I don't see any way in which this would break existing use cases. * If that is in place, there's no real need to support the hash in HTTP. When using the DN directly, I think that both HTTP and XRootD should work the same, correct? * To support real-life use cases, though, a regexp matching would be required. What do you think? -- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/xrootd/xrootd/issues/1268#issuecomment-1408803124 You are receiving this because you commented.
