Allen Wittenauer commented on HADOOP-9019:
------------------------------------------
Can't you just use the _HOST macro instead? (or is that only in my branch? I
can't remember what is supposed by the Apache version anymore...)
> KerberosAuthenticator.doSpnegoSequence(..) should create a HTTP principal
> with hostname everytime

>
> in KerberosAuthenticator.doSpnegoSequence(..) following line of code will
> just create a principal of the form "HTTP/<host>",
> {code} String servicePrincipal =
> KerberosUtil.getServicePrincipal("HTTP",
> KerberosAuthenticator.this.url.getHost());{code}
> but uri.getHost() is not sure of always getting hostname. If uri contains
> IP, then it just returns IP.
> For SPNEGO authentication principal should always be created with <hostname>.
> This code should be something like this, which will look /etc/hosts to get
> hostname
> {code} String hostname = InetAddress.getByName(
> KerberosAuthenticator.this.url.getHost()).getHostName();
> String servicePrincipal = KerberosUtil.getServicePrincipal("HTTP",
> hostname);{code}
