add Kerberos HTTP SPNEGO authentication support to Hadoop JT/NN/DN/TT web-consoles ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HADOOP-7119 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7119 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: New Feature Components: security Environment: all Reporter: Alejandro Abdelnur Assignee: Alejandro Abdelnur Currently the JT/NN/DN/TT web-consoles don't support any form of authentication. Hadoop RPC API already supports Kerberos authentication. Kerberos enables single sign-on. Popular browsers (Firefox and Internet Explorer) have support for Kerberos HTTP SPNEGO. Adding support for Kerberos HTTP SPNEGO to Hadoop web consoles would provide a unified authentication mechanism and single sign-on for Hadoop web UI and Hadoop RPC. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
