Hi again Tony, Moving this to u...@hbase.apache.org (bcc'd common-user@hadoop.apache.org). Please use the right user group lists for best responses. I've added you to CC in case you aren't subscribed to the HBase user lists.
Can you share the whole error/stacktrace-if-any/logs you get at the HMaster that says AccessControlException? Would be helpful to see what particular class/operation logged it to help you specifically. I have an instance of 0.92-based cluster running after having followed http://hbase.apache.org/book.html#zookeeper and https://ccp.cloudera.com/display/CDH4DOC/HBase+Security+Configuration and it seems to work well enough with auth enabled.
