Benjamin Reed commented on ZOOKEEPER-938: ----------------------------------------- are you going to move the sasl processing out of finalrp and into or close to ServerCnxn? > Support Kerberos authentication of clients. > ------------------------------------------- > > Key: ZOOKEEPER-938 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-938 > Project: ZooKeeper > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: java client, server > Reporter: Eugene Koontz > Assignee: Eugene Koontz > Fix For: 3.4.0, 3.5.0 > > Attachments: NIOServerCnxn.patch, ZOOKEEPER-938.patch, > ZOOKEEPER-938.patch, ZOOKEEPER-938.patch, ZOOKEEPER-938.patch, > ZOOKEEPER-938.patch, ZOOKEEPER-938.patch, ZOOKEEPER-938.patch, > ZOOKEEPER-938.patch, ZOOKEEPER-938.patch, ZOOKEEPER-938.patch, > ZOOKEEPER-938.patch, jaas.conf, sasl.patch > > > Support Kerberos authentication of clients. > The following usage would let an admin use Kerberos authentication to assign > ACLs to authenticated clients. > 1. Admin logs into zookeeper (not necessarily through Kerberos however). > 2. Admin decides that a new node called '/mynode' should be owned by the user > 'zkclient' and have full permissions on this. > 3. Admin does: zk> create /mynode content sasl:zkcli...@foofers.org:cdrwa > 4. User 'zkclient' logins to kerberos using the command line utility 'kinit'. > 5. User connects to zookeeper server using a Kerberos-enabled version of > zkClient (ZookeeperMain). > 6. Behind the scenes, the client and server exchange authentication > information. User is now authenticated as 'zkclient'. > 7. User accesses /mynode with permissions 'cdrwa'. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
