Mohammed amine GARMES commented on KAFKA-3469: ---------------------------------------------- Hello, I spent much time with this problem before I find this discussion, maybe you can clarify this point in your documentation : http://kafka.apache.org/090/documentation.html#security_sasl Indeed, we need to use the same principal in the "Zookeeper client authentication" configuration for all workers // Zookeeper client authentication Client { com.sun.security.auth.module.Krb5LoginModule required useKeyTab=true storeKey=true keyTab="/etc/security/keytabs/kafka_server.keytab" principal="kafka/zkad...@example.com"; }; bests regards > kafka-topics lock down znodes with user principal when zk security is enabled. > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: KAFKA-3469 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-3469 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Ashish K Singh > Assignee: Ashish K Singh > > In envs where ZK is kerberized, if a user, other than user running kafka > processes, creates a topic, ZkUtils will lock down corresponding znodes for > the user. Kafka will not be able to modify those znodes and that leaves the > topic unusable. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
