--------------------------------------
Summary: Only use existing SASL libraries in libhdfs++
Key: HDFS-13666
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-13666
Project: Hadoop HDFS
Issue Type: Task
Reporter: James Clampffer
At one point there were plans to implement SASL support from scratch inside of
libhdfs++. Since then we added added Kerberos support through Cyrus SASL and
GSasl. I propose removing the partial implementation from libhdfs++ since
doing the secure handshake and encryption are still marked TODO but it's
unclear what getting that done involves. That way we can focus time on using
Cyrus (GSasl uses GPL) to support DIGEST-MD5 auth and wire encryption.
