Owen O'Malley commented on HADOOP-16214:
----------------------------------------

[~xkrogen] can you clarify what your principals look like and what is the 
intended semantics behind them? The standard hadoop usage of <user>@<realm> and 
<service>/<host>@<realm> is very much the standard and I'd love to hear what 
your use case is like.

That said, [~daryn]'s approach makes more sense. Extending the parser to handle 
additional components without redefining the current behaviors is much better. 
Adding support for $3, $4, ... makes sense and won't break current systems.

> org.apache.hadoop.security.authentication.util.KerberosName is in charge of

> services requiring authentication.
> Although the Kerberos spec 
> ([https://web.mit.edu/kerberos/krb5-1.5/krb5-1.5.4/doc/krb5-user/What-is-a-Kerberos-Principal_003f.html])
>  allows for an arbitrary number of components in the principal, the Hadoop 
> implementation will throw a "Malformed Kerberos name:" error if the principal 
> has more than two components (because the regex can only read serviceName and 
> hostName).
