Class KerberosAuthenticator

java.lang.Object

com.hortonworks.registries.auth.client.KerberosAuthenticator

All Implemented Interfaces:

Authenticator

public class KerberosAuthenticator
extends java.lang.Object
implements Authenticator

The KerberosAuthenticator implements the Kerberos SPNEGO authentication sequence.

It uses the default principal for the Kerberos cache (normally set via kinit).

It falls back to the PseudoAuthenticator if the HTTP endpoint does not trigger an SPNEGO authentication sequence.
