Benoy Antony commented on HADOOP-10709:
---------------------------------------
It doesn't solve the first drawback : _org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.web.AuthFilter
requires specifying the full set of parameters for webhdfs authentication. This
jira aims to avoid that additional specification by reusing the Filter instance
used for General HTTP Authentication._
> Reuse Filters across web apps

> Components: security

> Currently, we need to define separate authentication filters for webhdfs and
> general webui. This also involves defining parameters for those filters.
> It will be better if one could reuse filters for web apps if desired.
