Authentication

Hi all.

Can anyone give me an example how i can programmatically authenticate from
a remote client as a particular user?

Thanks!
Denis

The word 'oozie' is to be taken just as an example on that document. You do not need Oozie to have that functionality.

P.s. Its name is used cause Oozie is a heavy external user of that API.

To be clear, all of the functionality is in Hadoop. The user "oozie"
was used as an example and we should probably change the example to
look more like:

<property>
  <name>hadoop.proxyuser.myproxy.groups</name>
  <value>group1,group2</value>
</property>
<property>
  <name>hadoop.proxyuser.myproxy.hosts</name>
  <value>host1,host2</value>
</property>

Which enables the "myproxy" user to impersonate "group1" or "group2"
when working on "host1" or "host2".

Harsh,
Does that mean to implement authentication we need to have oozie jars with
hadoop jars?
