[cifs-protocol] [REG:116052814221908] Validated-Writes of servicePrincipalNames

[Stefan Metzmacher]

Hi Sreekanth,

sorry for the long delay.

The difference I see is that you're doing this as administrator.

I'm talking about validated-writes done by an account on it's own
computer object. And that's what [MS-ADTS] 3.1.1.5.3.1.1.4
servicePrincipalName
about, also see the parent section 3.1.1.5.3.1.1 Validated Writes

Can you please continue your reserach on this?

Thanks!

> Hello Stefan, simple tests at my end using a test domain controller shows that all of the following values are allowed by MS Windows domain controller. Before I propose any doc changes, can you confirm which domain controller you have used when you say "Testing against a Windows DC shows that **only** numeric characters are allowed after ':'" Did you mean to say the domain controller itself failed to add such SPN ? Or are you saying that it is the SQL Server that didn't find an SPN that has a nonnumeric character after ":"  ?

> But ultimately, If the SPN does not match the string as constructed by the Service i.e. SQL Server in this case, authentication will fail.
