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

             Summary: Using parentheses is not allowed in auth_to_local regex
                 Key: HADOOP-14231
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-14231
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Andras Bokor
            Assignee: Andras Bokor
            Priority: Minor


I tried to set the following  property for auth_to_local property:
{code}"RULE:[2:$1]((n|d)n)s/.*/hdfs//{code}
but I got the following exception:
{code}Exception in thread "main" java.util.regex.PatternSyntaxException: 
Unclosed group near index 9
(nn|dn|jn{code}

I found that this occurs because {{ruleParser}} in 
{{org.apache.hadoop.security.authentication.util.KerberosName}} excludes 
closing parentheses.

I do not really see the value of excluding parentheses (do I miss something?) 
so I would remove this restriction to be able to use more regex functionalities.
