Kan Zhang commented on HADOOP-6419:
-----------------------------------
My current plan is to leave the server side as it is, and upload a new patch
that hides the client side SASL code into a custom socket.
> Change RPC layer to support SASL/token based mutual authentication

> The authentication mechanism to use will be SASL DIGEST-MD5 (see RFC-2222 and
> RFC-2831). Since J2SE 5, Sun provides a SASL implementation by default. Both
> our delegation token and job token can be used as credentials for SASL
> DIGEST-MD5 authentication.
