[jira] [Created] (HDFS-5796) The file system browser in the namenode UI requires SPNEGO.

Kihwal Lee created HDFS-5796:
--------------------------------

             Summary: The file system browser in the namenode UI requires SPNEGO.
                 Key: HDFS-5796
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-5796
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.4.0
            Reporter: Kihwal Lee
            Priority: Critical


After HDFS-5382, the browser makes webhdfs REST calls directly, requiring SPNEGO to work between user's browser and namenode.  This won't work if the cluster's security infrastructure is isolated from the regular network.  Moreover, SPNEGO is not supposed to be required for user-facing web pages.
