[jira] [Commented] (HIVE-4707) Support configurable domain name for HiveServer2 LDAP authentication using Active Directory

["Ashutosh Chauhan (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-4707?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13684987#comment-13684987 ] 

Ashutosh Chauhan commented on HIVE-4707:
----------------------------------------

One option was to use username like foo@bar.com ie, append domain name with username, since only thing patch does is append domain to username. Not saying this is a better approach, but thought you may have already tried this. Did that result in any issue?

> LDAP providers like Active Directory use a fully qualified user name in user@domain format. For HiveServer2 LDAP auth can be used with active directory by passing the userid in that format. This causes hive authentication module to retrun the username in that mangled format. This prohibits LDAP users to be impersonated over secure hadoop or reported correctly in audit etc.
> HiveServer2 should support a configurable LDAP domain that is appended to the user name.
