Gary Helmling created HBASE-7357:
------------------------------------
Summary: HBaseClient and HBaseServer should use
hbase.security.authentication when negotiating authentication
Key: HBASE-7357
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-7357
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Bug
Components: security
Reporter: Gary Helmling
This came up in the context of testing HBASE-6788. Currently HBaseClient and
HBaseServer call UserGroupInformation.isSecurityEnabled() when determining
whether or not to use SASL to negotiate connections. This means they are using
the hadoop.security.authentication configuration value. Since this is in the
context of HBase RPC connections, it seems more correct to use the
hbase.security.authentication configuration value by calling
User.isHBaseSecurityEnabled().
