Cassandra Targett updated SOLR-12531:
-------------------------------------
    Component/s: Authentication

> Update/Improve Kerberos-Authentication-Plugin Ref Guide page
> ------------------------------------------------------------
>
>                 Key: SOLR-12531
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-12531
>             Project: Solr
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>      Security Level: Public(Default Security Level. Issues are Public) 
>          Components: Authentication, documentation
>    Affects Versions: 7.4
>            Reporter: Jason Gerlowski
>            Assignee: Jason Gerlowski
>            Priority: Major

> The [Kerberos Authentication 
> Plugin|https://lucene.apache.org/solr/guide/7_4/kerberos-authentication-plugin.html]
>  ref-guide page does a good job of informing users how to setup Kerberos in 
> their Solr deployments.
> But it's also got some papercuts that make it tougher to follow than it needs 
> to be.  These include:
> - some code snippets use classes that no longer exist.  This confuses new 
> users, as shown by this mailing list question that came up the other day: 
> http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/SolrJ-Kerberos-Client-API-td4396275.html
> - no mention of {{bin/solr auth}} for modifying {{security.json}} for 
> Kerberos.
> - missing explanation of {{solr.kerberos.name.rules}} syntax/meaning
> - the name: the article's doesn't just cover Solr's auth plugin.  It walks a 
> user through setting up Kerberos on their cluster.  Maybe a more general name 
> is appropriate. ("Setting Up Kerberos"?  "Kerberos Support"?)
> None of these are major, but I've run into enough papercuts trying to use the 
> page that I think it's worth fixing.  If anyone has other suggestions for 
> changes please let me know.  I hope to have a draft up shortly for review.
