> Today whether stram web service authentication is enabled or disabled is totally dependent on hadoop authentication setting for rpc (not even hadoop http authentication setting). So if hadoop authentication is enabled stram web service authentication was enabled. Furthermore when stram web service authentication is enabled, at authentication time checks are done against RM proxy ip address which fail if the addresses aren't configured correctly for example in HA scenarios. This requires debugging and specifying the correct properties if they are missing. Users may not want this authentication in the first place and not want to go through hassle.
> A better mechanism is needed where users can configure this authentication.
