Sanjay Radia commented on HADOOP-8101: -------------------------------------- The current patch is designed for non-secure Hadoop. It is okay to say that windows works for non-secure mode; a secure-windows Hadoop can be addressed later. However it is desirable for a windows desktop to securely submit jobs to a secure Hadoop cluster. All that is needed for that is that the client-side should get authenticate and get tokens - this should work since the login in UserGroupInformation does the right thing in a platform independent way (To be verified). > Security changes for Hadoop for Windows > --------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-8101 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8101 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: native > Reporter: Sanjay Radia > Attachments: security.patch > > -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
