Description

Can't connect on windows using GSSAPI when the MariaDB user references a group. Referencing the user works fine.

HeidiSQL version and OS

12.20.0.7320 Windows

Database server version

Reproduction recipe

Let's say I modify root to use gssapi and a group

ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED VIA gssapi AS 'GROUP:Administrators';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

if I use mariadb.exe by itself it says ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denie for user 'xxx'@'localhost' (using password: no)

if I use mariadb -u root from an elevated command prompt it logs in. if I use mariadb -u root from a non-elevated account it does not. Great!

But if I use HeidiSQL (running elevated) if fails to login. It says using my machine/username password: no. It does not give me an option to specify the user root when using GSSAPI.
