Github user ijokarumawak commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/nifi/pull/563 Test with Kerberized Kafka and Zk is done. I followed [confluent Apache Kafka Security 101](http://www.confluent.io/blog/apache-kafka-security-authorization-authentication-encryption) to setup test environment. As written in the blog post, I used the [Vagrant instance](https://github.com/confluentinc/securing-kafka-blog), then deployed NiFi Snapshot build on it. In order to make ConsumeKafka working, followings had to be configured: - $NIFI/conf/bootstrap.conf - java.arg.15=-Djava.security.auth.login.config=/etc/kafka/kafka_client_jaas.conf - ConsumeKafka processor properties - Kafka Brokers: kafka.example.com:9095 - Topic Name: securing-kafka - Client ID: (any value would be fine) - Security Protocol: SASL_SSL - Kerberos Service Name: kafka - Group ID: securing-kafka-group * needs ACL setting - Offset Reset: earliest (doesn't matter) - Message Demarcrator: (No value set) - ssl.key.password: test1234 - ssl.keystore.location: /etc/security/tls/kafka.client.keystore.jks - ssl.keystore.password: test1234 - ssl.truststore.location: /etc/security/tls/kafka.client.keystore.jks - ssl.truststore.password: test1234 Thanks @olegz for helping me to setup the environment. I also should thank [confluent](http://www.confluent.io/) for publishing the detailed blog post and share Vagrant file!
