UTF-8 data handling by GSS

We have a setup with windows2000 and Kerberos/JGSS. Can someone provide me with the information as to what additional needs to be done so as to be able to authenticate a username given in UTF-8 data. The user authentication for ascii characters succeeds for me but fails while I enter usename with non-ascii characters.

Kerberos V is not internationalized. Applications are expected to provide

ASCII characters with Kerberos, which is in compliance with the specification.

Non-ASCII username/passwords are not supported under the present definition.

There is an ongoing effort at IETF to address this.
