> (3) I'm confused here - Spark can't read a keytab if the permissions on
the keytab file deny access.
But in standalone mode all executors run as the "spark" user, whatever that
is. If I understood your design, that means that "spark" would need to be able
to read the keytabs for all users. Which means users can read each other's
keytabs.
I understand this might not be a concern for the scenario where this
feature is being proposed, but it might give people the wrong impression. Why
have secure HDFS in that case to start with?
