<remedy_details> JClient has always converted all UNICODE (java)
      password strings into UTF8. DClient has assumed password strings
      to be 7 bit ASCII. DClient has provided a new interface/flag that
      says that the password string is UTF8. This is done with a call to
      DDCSetContextFlagSet()  with the DDC_SEC_PWD_TYPE_UTF8 flag. JClient
      needs to make this call every time a context is created. This will force
      all passwords to be interpreted as UTF8. This is what we want since
      the passwords are always converted from UNICODE to UTF8. </remedy_details>

<remedy_notes> rbeauchamp (  4/8/2003 1:07:45 PM  Testing -  ) JClient
      now calls DDCSetContextFlagSet()  with the DDC_SEC_PWD_TYPE_UTF8 flag
      every time it create a context. This will cause DClient to interpret all
      passwords a UTF8. JClient always converts passwords from UNICODE to UTF8.
