Daryn Sharp commented on HADOOP-9848:
-------------------------------------

I'm lacking the time to thoroughly review, but I'm quite excited by this!  
Questions: is it possible use the ApacheDS KDC w/o ldap?  If no, is it possible 
to create a file for the ldifs?  It looks like an awful lot of programatic code 
to get the miniKDC up and running, but maybe that's unavoidable?

What would be very nice is for a unit test base class, ex. 
KerberosSecurityTest, that junit files can extend.  The base class may have a 
@BeforeClass and @AfterClass to start/stop the kdc.  It would extremely nice to 
show that we can take existing junit tests, extend the test base class, and 
have them "just work".

> Create a MiniKDC using Apache Directory Server. MiniKDC builds an embedded 
> KDC (key distribution center), and allows to create principals and keytabs on 
> the fly. MiniKDC can be integrated for Hadoop security unit testing.
