-------------------------------------
The pull request is in!
I think it makes sense to open separate JIRA for upgrading zkclient?
> Authenticate connection to Zookeeper
> ------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-1695
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1695
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: security
> Reporter: Jay Kreps
> Assignee: Gwen Shapira
>
> We need to make it possible to secure the Zookeeper cluster Kafka is using.
> This would make use of the normal authentication ZooKeeper provides.
> ZooKeeper supports a variety of authentication mechanisms so we will need to
> figure out what has to be passed in to the zookeeper client.
> The intention is that when the current round of client work is done it should
> be possible to run without clients needing access to Zookeeper so all we need
> here is to make it so that only the Kafka cluster is able to read and write
> to the Kafka znodes (we shouldn't need to set any kind of acl on a per-znode
> basis).
