Rpc client doesn't use the per-connection conf to figure out server's Kerberos principal.

This is not sufficient for security since each connection needs to > figure out server's Kerberos principal on a per-connection basis. It's not > reasonable to expect the first conf used by a user to contain all the > Kerberos principals that her future connections will ever need. Or worse, if > her first conf contains an incorrect principal name, it will prevent the user > from connecting to the server even if she later on passes in a correct conf > on retry (by calling RPC.getProxy()). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
