RE: hadoop security API (repost)
Alejandro, Thanks for the reply. My intent is to also be able to scan/get/put hbase tables under a specified identity as well. What options do I have to perform the same multi-tenant authorization for these operations? I have posted this to hbase users distribution list as well, but thought you might have insight. Since hbase security authentication is so dependent upon hadoop, it would be nice if your suggestion worked for hbase as well. Getting back to your suggestion... when configuring "hadoop.proxyuser.myserveruser.hosts", host1 would be where I'm making the ugi.doAs() privileged call and host2 is the hadoop namenode? Also, an another option, is there not a way for an application to pass hadoop/hbase authentication the name of a Kerberos principal to use? In this case, no proxy, just execute as the designated user.

Re: hadoop security API (repost)
Tony, If you are doing a server app that interacts with the cluster on behalf of different users (like Ooize, as you mentioned in your email), then you should use the proxyuser capabilities of Hadoop. * Configure user MYSERVERUSER as proxyuser in Hadoop core-site.xml (this requires 2 properties settings, HOSTS and GROUPS). * Run your server app as MYSERVERUSER and have a Kerberos principal MYSERVERUSER/MYSERVERHOST * Initialize your server app loading the MYSERVERUSER/MYSERVERHOST keytab * Use the UGI.doAs() to create JobClient/Filesystem instances using the user you want to do something on behalf * Keep in mind that all the users you need to do something on behalf should be valid Unix users in the cluster * If those users need direct access to the cluster, they'll have to be also defined in in the KDC user database.

RE: hadoop security API (repost)
Yes, but this will not work in a multi-tenant environment. I need to be able to create a Kerberos TGT per execution thread. I was hoping through JAAS that I could inject the name of the current principal and authenticate against it. I'm sure there is a best practice for hadoop/hbase client API authentication, just not sure what it is. Thank you for your comment. The solution may well be associated with the UserGroupInformation class. Hopefully, other ideas will come from this thread.

Re: hadoop security API (repost)
Hi Tony, I am currently working on this to access HDFS securely and programmaticaly. What I have found so far may help even if I am not 100% sure this is the right way to proceed. If you have already obtained a TGT from the kinit command, hadoop library will locate it "automatically" if the name of the ticket cache corresponds to default location. On Linux it is located /tmp/krb5cc_uid-number. For example, with my linux user hdfs, I get a TGT for hadoop user 'ivan' meaning you can impersonate ivan from hdfs linux user: -- hdfs@mitkdc:~$ klist Ticket cache: FILE:/tmp/krb5cc_10003 Default principal: i...@hadoop.lan Valid startingExpires Service principal 02/07/2012 13:59 02/07/2012 23:59 krbtgt/hadoop@hadoop.lan renew until 03/07/2012 13:59 --- Then, you just have to set the right security options in your hadoop client in java and the identity will be i...@hadoop.lan for our example. In my tests, I only use HDFS and here a snippet of code to have access to a secure hdfs cluster assuming the previous TGT (ivan's impersonation): val conf: HdfsConfiguration = new HdfsConfiguration() conf.set(CommonConfigurationKeysPublic.HADOOP_SECURITY_AUTHENTICATION, "kerberos") conf.set(CommonConfigurationKeysPublic.HADOOP_SECURITY_AUTHORIZATION, "true") conf.set(DFSConfigKeys.DFS_NAMENODE_USER_NAME_KEY, serverPrincipal) UserGroupInformation.setConfiguration(conf) val fs = FileSystem.get(new URI(hdfsUri), conf) Using this 'fs' is a handler to access hdfs securely as user 'ivan' even if ivan does not appear in the hadoop client code. Anyway, I also see two other options: * Setting the KRB5CCNAME environment variable to point to the right ticketCache file * Specifying the keytab file you want to use from the UserGroupInformation singleton API: UserGroupInformation.loginUserFromKeytab(user, keytabFile) If you want to understand the auth process and the different options to login, I guess you need to have a look to the UserGroupInformation.java source code (release 0.23.1 link: http://bit.ly/NVzBKL). The private class HadoopConfiguration line 347 is of major interest in our case. Another point is that I did not find any easy way to prompt the user for a password at runtim using the actual hadoop API. It appears to be somehow hardcoded in the UserGroupInformation singleton.
