Arshad Mohammad commented on ZOOKEEPER-1467:
--------------------------------------------

Hi [~gbraccialli],
server principal can have three parts {{serviceName/hostName@realm}}
serviceName can be configured with {{zookeeper.sasl.client.username}}
realm can be configured with {{zookeeper.server.realm}}
only hostName is not configurable. It is taken same as the server IP.
zookeeper.server.principal is being introduced to give the complete principal 
like  {{-Dzookeeper.server.principal=zookeeper/[email protected]}}
where hadoop.hadoop.com is the hostName

> Server principal on client side is derived using hostname.

>    Affects Versions: 3.4.3, 3.4.4, 3.5.0, 4.0.0
>            Reporter: Laxman
>            Assignee: Eugene Koontz

> Server principal on client side is derived using hostname.
> org.apache.zookeeper.ClientCnxn.SendThread.startConnect()
> {code}
>            try {
>                 zooKeeperSaslClient = new 
> ZooKeeperSaslClient("zookeeper/"+addr.getHostName());
>             }
> {code}
> This may have problems when admin wanted some customized principals like 
> zookeeper/[email protected] where clusterid is the cluster identifier but 
> not the host name.
> IMO, server principal also should be configurable as hadoop is doing.
