Rajini Sivaram commented on KAFKA-2658:
---------------------------------------
[~junrao] The minimal changeset referred to in the comment above that would
enable us to integrate Kafka 0.9.0.0 with our authentication service is in the
branch KAFKA-2658-minimal in the repository
https://github.com/rajinisivaram/kafka. You can view the changes here:
https://github.com/apache/kafka/compare/trunk...rajinisivaram:KAFKA-2658-minimal.
Please let me know if it would be possible to integrate this into 0.9.0.0. If
so, I can submit a PR today. Thank you...

> Fix For: 0.9.0.0

>
> KAFKA-1686 supports SASL/Kerberos using GSSAPI. We should enable more SASL
> mechanisms. SASL/PLAIN would enable a simpler use of SASL, which along with
> SSL provides a secure Kafka that uses username/password for client
> authentication.
> SASL/PLAIN protocol and its uses are described in
> [https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4616]. It is supported in Java.
> This should be implemented after KAFKA-1686. This task should also hopefully
> enable simpler unit testing of the SASL code.
