fang fang chen commented on HADOOP-9679: ---------------------------------------- With hadoop-2.0.3, seems this issue can be avoided via setting kerberos.name.rules at server side. But this setting does not work at hadoop-1.1.1. I think we should set KerberosName.rules with a default value during KerberosName(String Name) which is invoked at KerberosAuthenticationHandler.authenticate(HttpServletRequest request, final HttpServletResponse response) . > KerberosName.rules are not initialized during adding kerberos support to a > web servlet using hadoop authentications > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-9679 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9679 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Bug > Components: security > Affects Versions: 1.1.2, 2.0.4-alpha > Reporter: fang fang chen > > I am using hadoop-1.1.1 to add kerberos authentication to a web service.
