RE: Access denied for kerberos users
Hi Peter, Thanks…. It was indeed an issue with how the user was defined in NIFI. I simply declared while I had to declare x...@localkdc.com<mailto:x...@localkdc.com>. So it was my mistake. Thanks again for your help, BR Nicolas De : Peter Wicks (pwicks) [mailto:pwi...@micron.com] Envoyé : mardi 27 septembre 2016 05:01 À : users@nifi.apache.org Objet : RE: Access denied for kerberos users Nicolas, If Bryan’s suggestion doesn’t work (and he’s probably correct), you may not have named your user correctly in NiFi. Go try to authenticate again, then go to {nifi install directory}/logs and look at the end of nif-user.log. You should see more details about your authentication request and what name it tried to use to authenticate you. This was how I worked around getting my naming conventions to match. In my case I had enabled “Identity Mapping Properties” in nifi.properties so that I could use both certificates and Kerberos, but had forgotten to rename the account objects I had already added to NiFi.

At a minimum they need a policy for "view the user interface" from the global policies in the top-right menu. -Bryan On Mon, Sep 26, 2016 at 11:43 AM, Provenzano Nicolas mailto:nicolas.provenz...@gfi.fr>> wrote: Hi all, I configured an 1.0.0 NIFI instance to use Kerberos services for authentication.

RE: Access denied for kerberos users
Hello Bryan, Initially, I granted onky the « view the user interface » right. As I had the issue I described, I added each right step by step but still with the same result.

Hello, Since you are getting to "insufficient permissions" page this means that NiFi successfully authenticated your user against the KDC, but then the authorizer in NiFi said the user didn't have permissions for something.
