Don Bosco Durai commented on RANGER-684:
----------------------------------------
I think, we should keep it simple. Just transform minimally so it matches what
the hadoop admin might have done in auth_to_local. Also, Ranger main purpose of
UserSync is just to help in creating the policies in Ranger.
Supporting regex or javascript will give admin the option to map user properly
in Ranger.
[~aloklal99], for now we should avoid mapping at the plugin side. I think, we
should just let Hadoop auto_to_local do it.
