-------------------------------------

             Summary: Add Documentation For Simple User Access
                 Key: HBASE-9742
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-9742
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: documentation
    Affects Versions: 0.96.0
            Reporter: Jesse Anderson
            Assignee: Jesse Anderson


The [security section|http://hbase.apache.org/book/security.html] in the HBase book only talks about using Kerberos. There is a simple user access mode too that is not documented.

This should be documented for development systems and HBase installs where security is not an issue, but they want to prevent user mistakes.

I've added a section to the security chapter that talks about simple user access. The new section makes it very clear it is not secure.
