Vaibhav Gumashta commented on HIVE-5447: ---------------------------------------- [~prasadm] Would you like to revisit this as this won't apply due to a bunch of changes since this was uploaded? As you pointed out, current client setup is very inflexible for a secure cluster. > HiveServer2 should allow secure impersonation over LDAP or other non-kerberos > connection > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-5447 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-5447 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: HiveServer2 > Affects Versions: 0.11.0, 0.12.0 > Reporter: Prasad Mujumdar > Assignee: Prasad Mujumdar > Fix For: 0.14.0 > > Attachments: HIVE-5447.1.patch, HIVE-5447.2.patch > > > Currently the impersonation on a secure hadoop cluster only works when HS2 > connection itself is kerberos. This forces clients to configure kerberos > which can be a deployment nightmare. > We should allow other authentications mechanism to perform secure > impersonation. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
