Kai Zheng updated DIRKRB-102:
-----------------------------
Description:
As discussed in the community, we're going to create a dedicated Kerberos
project based on Haox project codebase (https://github.com/drankye/haox)
incorporating and consolidating the existing Kerberos functionalities in
ApacheDS. The long term goal is to establish a first class Kerberos
implementation in Java for the Apache world targeting today's environments in
cloud, Hadoop and mobile. It will provides rich, intuitive and interoperable
library and facilities that integrate multiple authentication mechanisms
including PKI, OTP and token (OAuth) as desired in above mentioned modern
environments.It will also implement a KDC server that can integrate various
identity back ends including simple memory database, SQL database and LDAP
server by dynamic plugin and loading approach, which allows it to be utilized
in various contexts and scenarios.
This serves as the master JIRA to track all the related tasks for the new sub
project. With the fundamental aspects and tasks resolved, we would go to next
phase targeting an Apache TLP project, as we agreed in the discussion.
