[jira] [Commented] (SOLR-8048) bin/solr script should accept user name and password

["Daniel Davis (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-8048?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14742815#comment-14742815 ] 

Daniel Davis commented on SOLR-8048:
------------------------------------

Difficult to do well.   We can respond to the authentication request sent by the server, but handling basic, MD5, etc. won't cover all the possible scenarios.   I work in the federal government - we are urged not to have our applications in the line of authentication at all, but to use redirect federated authentication scenarios such as CAS, Oauth2, OpenID, etc. but usually not with all OpenID providers ;)

So, teaching Solr scripts such as bin/solr with the ability to interact with all such authentication plugins could not easily happen, unless the redirection somehow identifies itself as a security challenge.   I'll look into that and report back.

> It should be possible to pass the user name as a param say {{-user solr:SolrRocks}} or alternately it should prompt for user name and password
