----------------------------------
Summary: Backport "HBASE-27693 Support for Hadoop's LDAP
Authentication mechanism (Web UI only)" to branch-2
Key: HBASE-28368
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-28368
Project: HBase
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Yash Dodeja
Assignee: Yash Dodeja
Fix For: 3.0.0-alpha-4
Hadoop's AuthenticationFilter has changed and now has support for ldap
mechanism too. HBase still uses an older version tightly coupled with kerberos
and spnego as the only auth mechanisms. HADOOP-12082 has added support for
multiple auth handlers including LDAP. On trying to use Hadoop's
AuthenticationFilterInitializer in hbase.http.filter.initializers, there is a
casting exception as HBase requires it to extendÂ
org.apache.hadoop.hbase.http.FilterInitializer.
