Yuliya Feldman commented on ZOOKEEPER-2159: ------------------------------------------- [~ekoontz] Any news? Did you have a chance to review my changes/replies and test with Kerberos? > Pluggable SASL Authentication > ----------------------------- > > Key: ZOOKEEPER-2159 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-2159 > Project: ZooKeeper > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: java client, server > Reporter: Yuliya Feldman > Assignee: Yuliya Feldman > Attachments: PluggableZookeeperAuthentication (1).pdf, > PluggableZookeeperAuthentication.pdf > > > Today SASLAuthenticationProvider is used for all SASL based authentications > which creates some "if/else" statements in ZookeeperSaslClient and > ZookeeperSaslServer code with just Kerberos and Digest. > We want to use yet another different SASL based authentication and adding one > more "if/else" with some code specific just to that new way does not make > much sense. > Proposal is to allow to plug custom SASL Authentication mechanism(s) without > further changes in Zookeeper code. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
