Daryn Sharp commented on HADOOP-10322:
--------------------------------------

Yes, Allen, the main purpose of this patch is to support multiple keytab logins 
for multi-interface support.

I think it might be better to add this to common's {{SecurityUtil}} so we can 
add multi-interface support to other parts of hadoop.  For simplicity, I'd 
suggest a single method that takes a path and pattern, then returns all the 
matching principals.
