Sumit Gupta commented on AMBARI-7973:
-------------------------------------

End to end tested Knox functionality in Ambari. This specific scenario involves 
installing knox and hdfs via ambari and then accessing webhdfs via knox using a 
REST call. The call fails for a 'guest' user as defined in the users.ldif file 
due to the guest user not being recognized. Once the format of the users.ldif 
is fixed, the same scenario tried again works fine.

> Knox configuration of users-ldif results in bad format of users.ldif file

> The bad format of the users.ldif file written out by the content of the 
> users-ldif configuration section results in the demo LDAP not reading the 
> configuration correctly and the guest user not being able to authenticate.
