Eric Yang commented on HADOOP-16354:
------------------------------------
If AuthFilter is extended from AuthenticationFilter, then webhdfs doesn't honor
?doAs= flag. This breaks compatibility:
https://hadoop.apache.org/docs/current/hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-hdfs/WebHDFS.html#Proxy_Users
When user access webhdfs via Knox. Knox credential would be used.
I think AuthFilter should extend from ProxyUserAuthenticationFilter to ensure
that doAs flag is honored. AuthFilter only ignores doAs flag when DT is in use.
> Enable AuthFilter as default for WebHdfs

> HADOOP-16314 provides an generic option to configure
> ProxyUserAuthenticationFilterInitializer (Kerberos + doAs support) for all
> the services. If this is not configured, AuthenticationFIlter is used for
> NameNode UI and WebHdfs. Will enable AuthFilter as default for WebHdfs so
> that it is backward compatible.
