Jimmy Xiang updated HBASE-8662:
-------------------------------
Fix Version/s: 0.98.0
Release Note:
With the patch, if "hbase.rest.authentication" is set to "kerberos" (the only
authentication method supported currently), REST server will impersonate the
authenticated user in access HBase.
The RPC layer proxy user settings should be configured properly.
Status: Patch Available (was: Open)
I manually tested this patch with and without authentication.
