Remove or support dfs.web.ugi ----------------------------- Key: HDFS-1390 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-1390 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Bug Components: name-node, security Affects Versions: 0.22.0 Reporter: Todd Lipcon Priority: Critical
The HDFS permissions guide still refers to {{dfs.web.ugi}}, and there are some vestiges in the code, but it no longer works post-security. We should either remove the vestiges entirely and document the servletfilter approach to securing the web UI, or preferably, we could make the StaticUserWebFilter (HADOOP-6832) respect this configuration parameter (possibly with deprecation). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
