Eric Yang commented on HADOOP-15996:
------------------------------------
[~bolke] UserGroupInformation class initialization can happen later than
KerberosAuthenticationHandler getting called to authenticate a remote client
because jetty startup and web application context initialization may result in
several web containers, each holds its own copy of UserGroupInformation class.
Some of which KerberosAuthenticationHandler is called without
UserGroupInformation initialization.
It might be possible to ensure the rule mechanism is setup in HttpServer2
initSpnego method for each of the web application context to receive the same
KerberosName setting.

> Hadoop does not allow support of @ character in username in recent security
> mailing list vote to revert HADOOP-12751. Hadoop auth_to_local rule must
> match to authorize user to login to Hadoop cluster. This design does not
> work well in multi-realm environment where identical username between two
> realms do not map to the same user. There is also possibility that lossy
> regex can incorrectly map users. In the interest of supporting multi-realms,
> it maybe preferred to pass principal name without rewrite to uniquely
> distinguish users. This jira is to revisit if Hadoop can support full
> principal names without rewrite and provide a plugin to override Hadoop's
> default implementation of auth_to_local for multi-realm use case.
