James Clampffer updated HDFS-13666:
-----------------------------------
Description: 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. (was: At one point there were plans to implement SASL support from
