             Summary: qpid-cluster to allow --sasl-mechanism option
                 Key: QPID-4003
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-4003
             Project: Qpid
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Python Tools
    Affects Versions: 0.14
            Reporter: Pavel Moravec
            Priority: Minor


Description of problem:
qpid-cluster shall have option --sasl-mechanism to select which SASL 
authentication mechanism it wishes to use. Other qpid tools have it.

That makes sense e.g. when more mechanisms are allowed and one wishes to 
authenticate qpid-cluster via Kerberos. Currently qpid-cluster picks up the 
most secure method (DIGEST-MD5) that can't be changed.

Trivial patch is already proposed.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
qpid 0.14


How reproducible:
100%


Steps to Reproduce:
1. don't limit auth.mechanisms in /etc/sasl2/qpidd.conf (comment out mech_list 
there, if present)
2. have auth=yes in a clustered broker
3. Setup Kerberos credentials.
4. Try to run qpid-cluster authenticating via Kerberos.

 
Actual results:
There is no option to pick up a mechanism (in our case, GSSAPI).


Expected results:
Have --sasl-mechanism option available.


Additional info:
Easy patch proposed.
