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. > Support the mode where REST server authorizes proxy users > --------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-9866 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-9866 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Devaraj Das > Assignee: Devaraj Das > Fix For: 0.98.0, 0.99.0 > > Attachments: 9866-1.txt, 9866-2.txt, 9866-3.txt, 9866-4.txt, > 9866-4.txt > > > In one use case, someone was trying to authorize with the REST server as a > proxy user.
