Robert Kanter commented on HADOOP-10398:
----------------------------------------
{quote}how can you get a 200 from a kerberos protected endpoint if you did't
complete the spengo sequence?{quote}
IIRC, there is a bug in the JVM which can cause it to do the SPNEGO sequence
for us sometimes (which is what the code comment implies).
> KerberosAuthenticator failed to fall back to PseudoAuthenticator after
> HADOOP-10078

> {code}
> //KerberosAuthenticator.java
> if (conn.getResponseCode() == HttpURLConnection.HTTP_OK) {
> LOG.debug("JDK performed authentication on our behalf.");
> // If the JDK already did the SPNEGO back-and-forth for
> // us, just pull out the token.
> AuthenticatedURL.extractToken(conn, token);
> return;
> } else ...
> {code}
> The problem of the code above is that HTTP_OK does not implies authentication
> completed. We should check if the token can be extracted successfully.
