Bowen Zhang commented on HADOOP-10398:
--------------------------------------

[~rkanter], you are asking the right question. The user showing up as anonymous 
when killing the job because of this bug. If we fall back to 
PseudoAuthenticator, we will pick the system value "user.name", so user will 
not be anonymous.

> KerberosAuthenticator failed to fall back to PseudoAuthenticator after 
> HADOOP-10078

>         LOG.debug("JDK performed authentication on our behalf.");
>         // If the JDK already did the SPNEGO back-and-forth for

>         AuthenticatedURL.extractToken(conn, token);

> The problem of the code above is that HTTP_OK does not implies authentication 
> completed.  We should check if the token can be extracted successfully.
