| Hadoop Auth, Java HTTP SPNEGO |
| |
| Hadoop Auth is a Java library consisting of a client and a server |
| components to enable Kerberos SPNEGO authentication for HTTP. |
| |
| The client component is the AuthenticatedURL class. |
| |
| The server component is the AuthenticationFilter servlet filter class. |
| |
| Authentication mechanisms support is pluggable in both the client and |
| the server components via interfaces. |
| |
| In addition to Kerberos SPNEGO, Hadoop Auth also supports Pseudo/Simple |
| authentication (trusting the value of the query string parameter |
| 'user.name'). |
