Simple user/pass authentication

[Mohit Anchlia <mo...@gmail.com>]

Is there a way to implement a simple user/pass authentication in HBase
instead of using a Kerberos? Are the coprocessor the right way of
implementing such authentication?

Thanks for the info. I did look at the "simple" authentication however I
couldn't see how it works with the clients? Do clients pass user/pass? How
to define user/pass? Is password stored in clear text?
