--------------------------------------------

Tucu,
   The client should support Server principal canonicalization through DNS. It 
is one of the standard practices and many clients like curl, Firefox do it.

Having to configure hadoop.security.auth_to_local for something that is a very 
common Kerberos practice/standard is not ideal. 
                
> SPNEGO client side should use KerberosName rules

> currently KerberosName is used only on the server side to resolve the client
