[jira] [Commented] (HADOOP-8101) Security changes for Hadoop for Windows

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8101?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13220510#comment-13220510 ] 

Sanjay Radia commented on HADOOP-8101:
--------------------------------------

The current patch is designed for non-secure Hadoop. It is okay to say that windows works for non-secure mode; a secure-windows Hadoop can be addressed later. However it is desirable for a windows desktop to  securely submit jobs to a secure Hadoop cluster. All that is needed for that is that the client-side should get authenticate and get tokens - this should work since the login in UserGroupInformation does the right thing in a platform independent way (To be verified).
