John Vines commented on ACCUMULO-259:
-------------------------------------
Thought I made a ticket for this, but closest I can find is the comment in
ACCUMULO-238 . This is step one. Step two is to do as you described- seperate
the 'authority provider' from the 'authenticator'. This way we can let users
authenticate against one system that may or may not be able of holding
credentials. So, as you said, they could authenticate against one system and
then use zookeeper for their various credentials.
And I agree on the errors.

> Currently the ZKAuthenticator does both the checking of credentials as well
> as the functionality of the Authenticator. We need to split those into two
> different classes for improved testing as well as pluggability of the
> security scheme.
