Allen Wittenauer commented on HADOOP-8152: ------------------------------------------ Many parts of UGI are pretty broken when multiple keytabs are in play. They should probably be fixed before marking them public. The fact that HBase uses them even though they aren't marked Public is HBase's problem. > Expand public APIs for security library classes > ----------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-8152 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8152 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: security > Affects Versions: 2.0.0 > Reporter: Aaron T.
