Kirk Lund updated GEODE-1883: ----------------------------- Component/s: docs > AuthInitializer should be made optional > --------------------------------------- > > Key: GEODE-1883 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-1883 > Project: Geode > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: docs, management > Reporter: Swapnil Bawaskar > > {{AuthInitializer}} is the interface that a client must implement that > provides credentials that are verified by the server. The same interface is > also used for peer authentication. > In order to configure {{AuthInitialize}} any Geode property starting with > {{security-}} is passed through to the {{AuthInitialize.getCredentials}} > method. > For simple authentication where only a username and a password are required, > users should not really be required to implement the AuthInitialize interface > in the presence of property passthrough. > Geode should detect {{security-username}} and {{security-password}} > properties in gemfire.security OR gfsecurity.properties file and use those > for authentication. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
