Robert Levas commented on AMBARI-11001:
---------------------------------------
[~jeffreyr97]... I haven't heard of any issue related to this. Ambari is
configured to authenticate using a keytab, rather than the user's interactive
ticket cache. In order for {{renewTGT}} to be set to {{true},
{{useTicketCache}} must be set to {{true}}. If {{useTicketCache}} is set to
{{true}}, then you cannot use a keytab to authenticate.
See
https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/jre/api/security/jaas/spec/com/sun/security/auth/module/Krb5LoginModule.html.

> Key: AMBARI-11001
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMBARI-11001
> Project: Ambari
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: ambari-server
> Affects Versions: 2.1.0
> Reporter: Robert Levas
> Assignee: Robert Levas
> Priority: Critical
> Labels: JAAS
> Fix For: 2.1.0
>
> Attachments: AMBARI-11001_01.patch
>
>
> It appears that it is necessary to kinit prior to starting ambari-server,
> even after ambari-server setup-security (#3). It seems that this should be
> automatically handled by Ambari.
> Ambari-server should NOT use the same ticket cache as the interactive user.
> STR:
> 1. kinit
> 2. ambari-server start
> 3. verify that ambari-server can authenticate with ticket specified in #1
> 4. kdestroy
> 5. try to authenticate through Ambari again (it will not work)
> *Solution*
> Ensure JAAS Login works properly such that the Kerberos tickets for the
> account that executes Ambari is not relevant.
