Jonathan Ellis updated CASSANDRA-6928:
--------------------------------------
Fix Version/s: (was: 2.0.4)
> Custom Authenticator using LDAP
> -------------------------------
>
> Key: CASSANDRA-6928
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-6928
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Core
> Environment: Windows
> Reporter: Kathiresan Selvaraj
> Priority: Minor
>
> When a custom authenticator (implementing
> org.apache.cassandra.auth.IAuthenticator) is used, We authenticate the
> username and password connecting to an LDAP server. But, after the the
> custom authenticator's authenticate method is invoked, the
> login(AuthenticatedUser user) method of
> org.apache.cassandra.service.ClientState is invoked from CassandraServer's
> login method (i.e. state().login(user);). This checks for the user names
> presence in 'system_auth.users' table which defeats the purpose of custom
> authentication. Now i need to add users to the system_auth.users table as
> well to complete the authentication. Please advice.
