Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-2016: --------------------------------------- bq. Is there any update on that, particularly around LDAP authentication for end users? I suppose we can close this because the scope of the OP has been addressed by a bunch of other JIRAs. Regarding LDAP in particular, we can use Hadoop's support for LDAP in group mapping (that was HADOOP-8121). Beyond that could be the topic of a new enhancement JIRA. > [DAC] Authentication > -------------------- > > Key: HBASE-2016 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-2016 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: security > Reporter: Andrew Purtell > Assignee: Gary Helmling > > Follow what Hadoop is doing.
