Cassandra security model? ( or, authentication docs ?)
I see that the raw thrift API has a login() method,
but when I setup a one-node cluster, I can simply connect
localhost/9160 without any passwd
what is the current picture of the security model? how can I enforce
authentication?
I searched around, it seems that this is not clearly documented yet;
the closest I found is:
http://www.riptano.com/docs/0.6.5/install/auth-config
http://cassandra-user-incubator-apache-org.3065146.n2.nabble.com/Authentication-td5285013.html#a5285013
I did start cassandra with the args mentioned above:
bin/cassandra -Dpasswd.properties=mypasswd.properties
-Daccess.properties=myaccess.properties -f
but then I can still simply use the command line interface to
connect localhost/9160
use myKeyspace
without any authentication passwd

just as an fyi, I created something in the wiki yesterday - it's just a start though - http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/ExtensibleAuth
there's also a FAQ entry on it now - http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/FAQ#auth
just for going forward - on the wiki itself, just trying to help there.
