Replaced Kerberized SSL for image transfer and fsck with SPNEGO-based solution
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HDFS-2617
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-2617
Project: Hadoop HDFS
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Jakob Homan
The current approach to secure and authenticate nn web services is based on
Kerberized SSL and was developed when a SPNEGO solution wasn't available. Now
that we have one, we can get rid of the non-standard KSSL and use SPNEGO
throughout. This will simplify setup and configuration. Also, Kerberized SSL
is a non-standard approach with its own quirks and dark corners (HDFS-2386).
