Kihwal Lee commented on HDFS-5854:
----------------------------------
Related to or possible dupe of HDFS-5796?
bq. Perhaps the NN should be internally invoking the servlets to get the
response direct webhdfs calls would return. That retains the cool new UI and
allows flexibility for authentication.
I agree, but HDFS-5796 is not heading that way. Please chime in.

> webhdfs is on by default and the new NN status UI is coming up (after setting
> the {{ 'dfs.web.authentication.kerberos.principal}} property -but the FS
> browser failing with error code 401 -unauth.
> That's inevitably security related -somehow. But
> # the principal is set -or does httpfs-site.xml need to be filled in too?
> # if it is invalid, then some statement in the GUI should be provided
