Akira AJISAKA commented on HADOOP-12902:
----------------------------------------
Thanks [~gliptak] for creating the patch.
{code}
* <li>[#PREFIX#.]signature.secret: when signer.secret.provider is set to
- * "string" or not specified, this is the value for the secret used to sign the
+ * "file" or not specified, this is the value for the secret used to sign the
{code}
Reading the source code, it seems that {{\[#PREFIX#.]signature.secret}} is not
valid now. When "file" is specified, {{\[#PREFIX#.\]signature.secret.file}} is
the file path which the secret is loaded from. Would you update the patch to
document {{\[#PREFIX#.\]signature.secret.file}}?

> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: documentation
> Affects Versions: 2.7.0
> Reporter: Robert Kanter
> Assignee: Gabor Liptak
> Labels: newbie
> Attachments: HADOOP-12902.1.patch

>
> The Javadocs in {{AuthenticationFilter}} say:
> {noformat}
> * Out of the box it provides 3 signer secret provider implementations:
> * "string", "random", and "zookeeper"
> {noformat}
> However, the "string" implementation is no longer available because
> HADOOP-11748 moved it to be a test-only artifact. This also doesn't mention
> anything about the file-backed secret provider ({{FileSignerSecretProvider}}).
