Devaraj Das updated HBASE-9866:
-------------------------------

      Resolution: Fixed
    Release Note: hbase.rest.support.proxyuser when set to true would enable 
enable proxy-user support in the REST server. Like any other server, e.g., 
NameNode, which supports proxy user mode, appropriate proxy-user configuration 
needs to be set as well in the REST server (hadoop.proxyuser.$user.hosts, 
hadoop.proxyuser.$user.groups). Requests can then be made to the REST server 
with a 'doAs' in the query string url and if proxy user authorization check 
passes, the query will be executed as the 'doAs' user.
          Status: Resolved  (was: Patch Available)

Committed.

> In one use case, someone was trying to authorize with the REST server as a 
> proxy user. That mode is not supported today. 
> The curl request would be something like (assuming SPNEGO auth) - 
> {noformat}
> curl -i --negotiate -u : http://<HOST>:<PORT>/version/cluster?doas=<USER>
> {noformat}
