[jira] [Created] (HDFS-13666) Only use existing SASL libraries in libhdfs++

James Clampffer created HDFS-13666:
--------------------------------------

             Summary: Only use existing SASL libraries in libhdfs++
                 Key: HDFS-13666
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-13666
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Task
            Reporter: James Clampffer


At one point there were plans to implement SASL support from scratch inside of libhdfs++. Since then we added added Kerberos support through Cyrus SASL and GSasl.  I propose removing the partial implementation from libhdfs++ since doing the secure handshake and encryption are still marked TODO but it's unclear what getting that done involves.  That way we can focus time on using Cyrus (GSasl uses GPL) to support DIGEST-MD5 auth and wire encryption.
