Lars Hofhansl commented on HBASE-7357:
--------------------------------------
Looks good. This does not seem to be needed in the context of this patch:
{code}
- private boolean isSecurityEnabled;
+ protected boolean isSecurityEnabled;
{code}
> HBaseClient and HBaseServer should use hbase.security.authentication when
> negotiating authentication

> 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().
