------------------------------------

             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().
