Dear Wiki user, You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Cassandra Wiki" for change notification.
The "SimpleAuthenticator" page has been changed by DavidBiesack. The comment on this change is: initial content to document how the authenticator is configured.. http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/SimpleAuthenticator -------------------------------------------------- New page: SimpleAuthenticator is a authenticator provided with Cassandra. You enable it by adding {{{ <Authenticator>org.apache.cassandra.auth.SimpleAuthenticator</Authenticator> }}} in conf/storage-conf.xml. If no <Authenticator> is specified, the default is org.apache.cassandra.auth.AllowAllAuthenticator If you use SimpleAuthenticator you should also update bin/cassandra.in.sh to specify additional properties which point to the location of your authentication files. Add the following to the JVM_OPTS (e.g. before the -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port setting): {{{ -Dpasswd.properties=/usr/local/apache-cassandra-0.6.6/conf/passwd.properties \ -Daccess.properties=/usr/local/apache-cassandra-0.6.6/conf/access.properties \ }}} (Alter the paths to the configuration files depending on where placed the files.) See the sample passwd.properties and access.properties files in the conf directory.
