Sam Downing commented on AMQ-4693:
----------------------------------
Also, how do you suggest somebody implement Kerberos support in ActiveMQ? Can
it be done via ActiveMQ plugins? Since a user writing plugin does not have
handle of the actual socket/connection, it may be difficult to add kerberos
protocol/support via a broker plugin. Even if socket is accessible from broker
plugin, activemq will use the socket for its own communication protocol and
user will not be able to superimpose kerberos protocol on top of that
connection stream parallely.
Also, its not clear how will server authenticate itself to the user in such
cases.
I think kerberos authentication support will have to be inbuilt in activemq and
cannot be done via plugins. This is the main problem due to which i cannot
implement kerberos via plugin unless this is added into core activemq code.
Thanks,
Sam
