Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-3854:
--------------------------------------
> The filter mapping will solve the problem.
But shouldn't the filter mapping be done in Hadoop, not by the application, so
that when, e.g., we restructure Hadoop's urls, applications that use this
feature don't have to be updated? Folks could specify an authentication filter
that's called for user-facing pages. That seems like a much easier API for
Hadoop to maintain compatibly.
> org.apache.hadoop.http.HttpServer should support user configurable filter
