             Summary: Handle user@domain username under LDAP authentication
                 Key: HIVE-8916
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-8916
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Authentication
            Reporter: Mohit Sabharwal
            Assignee: Mohit Sabharwal


If LDAP is configured with multiple domains for authentication, users can be in 
different domains.

Currently, LdapAuthenticationProviderImpl blindly appends the domain configured 
"hive.server2.authentication.ldap.Domain" to the username, which limits user to 
that domain. However, under multi-domain authentication, the username may 
already include the domain (ex:  u...@domain.foo.com). We should not append a 
domain if one is already present.

Also, if username already includes the domain, rest of Hive and authorization 
providers still expects the "short name" ("user" and not "u...@domain.foo.com") 
for looking up privilege rules, etc.  As such, any domain info in the username 
should be stripped off.
