Jun Rao commented on KAFKA-2675: -------------------------------- [~sriharsha], could you explain a bit how cross realm connection works? In Sasl.createSaslClient(), it seems that it only takes the service name (protocol), but not the realm of the service. > SASL/Kerberos follow-up > ----------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-2675 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2675 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: security > Reporter: Ismael Juma > Assignee: Ismael Juma > Fix For: 0.9.0.0 > > > This is a follow-up to KAFKA-1686. > 1. Decide on `serviceName` configuration: do we want to keep it in two places? > 2. auth.to.local config name is a bit opaque, is there a better one? > 3. Implement or remove SASL_KAFKA_SERVER_REALM config > 4. Consider making Login's thread a daemon thread -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
