------------------------------------
Assignee: Galen O'Sullivan
> Amend current protocol Username / password to mimic the current
> SecurityManager implementation
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: GEODE-3739
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-3739
> Project: Geode
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: client/server
> Reporter: Udo Kohlmeyer
> Assignee: Galen O'Sullivan
>
> The current implementation of the simple username password authentication has
> a very specific message. The SimpleUsernamePassword authentication class then
> processes that messages and populates very specific properties and passes
> that through to the SecurityManager.
> Given that the securityManager implementation is custom this approach is very
> limiting. The new implementation would need to better mimic the generic
> properties that are passed through without having to manually set any
> properties.
> A suggestion is to use a more generic Properties-based authenticator, that
> will take the properties that a client sets and pass them through directly to
> the SecurityManager without interfering with the message other than
> deserializing it from a hash into properties.
