Aaron T. Myers updated THRIFT-876:
----------------------------------

    Attachment: thrift-sasl-spec.txt

First draft of the "Thrift with SASL" protocol specification. Comments 
appreciated. My intention is to include this document in the doc/ folder of 
Thrift repository.

Note that the protocol described is not yet implemented by the previous patch. 
This is because I expanded the protocol as Todd recommended to include allowing 
the Thrift server transport to support a list of security mechanisms it will 
accept, and to require the client to specify which security mechanism it would 
like to use. Once we nail down this protocol spec, I'll update the patch to 
implement it precisely.

> It'd be nice if there were some way of securing Thrift communication in a 
> pluggable fashion. SASL is the implementation chosen by Hadoop for this. 
> Seems like a good option for Thrift, too.
> I'll start with a Java implementation, then move on to support the other 
> language bindings.
