FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
java version "1.4.2-beta"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.2-beta-b19)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.2-beta-b19, mixed mode)


FULL OS VERSION :
Microsoft Windows 2000 [Version 5.00.2195]


EXTRA RELEVANT SYSTEM CONFIGURATION :
NOT APPLICABLE

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
The following program throws the following CertificateParsingException.

This wasn't happening in previous versions of the JRE, specifically:
java version "1.4.1_02"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.1_02-b06)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.1_02-b06, mixed mode)


This program contains the CA certificate of a Microsoft Certificate Server. The certificate contains two X.509 v3 extensions called  "CRL Distribution Points". One of the CRL Distribution Points contains a uniform resource identifier that is in the following Microsoft-specific form:

file://\\lea\CertEnroll\Lea%20CA.crl



STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
1. Save the following certificate as '.\lea.cer'.

2. Create the directory '.\tools\'.

3. Create the directory '.\tools\crypto\'.

4. Save the following program as '.\tools\crypto\CertTest.java':

5. Compile CertTest.java

6. Run CertTest.java

java -cp . tools.crypto.CertTest lea.cer

CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
Reconfigure Microsoft Certificate Server to not generate CRL distribution points of the form:

file://\\hostname\path

Release Regression From : 1.4.1_02
The above release value was the last known release where this 
bug was known to work. Since then there has been a regression.
