----------------------------------------

             Summary: Use hadoop.security.auth_to_local if available
                 Key: KAFKA-5801
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-5801
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 0.11.0.0, 0.10.2.0, 0.9.0.1, 0.8.2.2
         Environment: hadoop 2.6
            Reporter: Ruslan Dautkhanov
            Priority: Critical


As discussed in [comments for 
KAFKA-5764|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-5764?focusedCommentId=16143499&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-16143499],
 would be great if Kafka would optionally use `hadoop.security.auth_to_local` 
whenever available and fallback to `sasl.kerberos.principal.to.local.rules` if 
`hadoop.security.auth_to_local` isn't set / isn't available.

We have so many components use `hadoop.security.auth_to_local` - including 
hdfs, yarn, hive, spark, impala and it seems that we would need to duplicate 
`auth_to_local` rules into Kafka config. We have a lot of rules in 
`hadoop.security.auth_to_local` so it would be much easier to maintain if it's 
in one place.
