Daryn Sharp commented on HADOOP-8518:
-------------------------------------

Thanks for enlightening me Alejandro.  I did not realize SPNEGO is creating a 
service ticket.  Based on a quick read, it seems that CNAMES and proxies are 
often problematic and usually require an explicit config.  Using config options 
would seem to be problematic/expensive to maintain in multi-grid environments.

Would perhaps a cleaner way be for the server to send a http response header 
containing it's canonical hostname?  If that header is present, the SPNEGO 
client will use it to construct the server principal?
                
> SPNEGO client side should use KerberosName rules

> currently KerberosName is used only on the server side to resolve the client 
> name, we should use it on the client side as well to resolve the server name 
> before getting the kerberos ticket.
