I am trying to secure my HDP2 Hadoop cluster using Kerberos.
So far Hdfs, Hive, Hbase, Hue Beeswax and Hue Job/task browsers are working properly ; however Hue's File Browser is not working, it answers :
WebHdfsException at /filebrowser/
AccessControlException: SIMPLE authentication is not enabled. Available:[TOKEN, KERBEROS] (error 500)
Request Method: GET
Request URL: http://bt1svlmy:8000/filebrowser/
Django Version: 1.2.3
Exception Type: WebHdfsException
Exception Value:
AccessControlException: SIMPLE authentication is not enabled. Available:[TOKEN, KERBEROS] (error 500)
Exception Location: /usr/lib/hue/desktop/libs/hadoop/src/hadoop/fs/webhdfs.py in _stats, line 208
Python Executable: /usr/bin/python2.6
Python Version: 2.6.6
(...)
My hue.inifile is configured with all security_enabled=true and other related parameters set.
I believe the problem is with WebHDFS.
I tried the curl commands given at http://hadoop.apache.org/docs/r1.0.4/webhdfs.html#Authentication
curl -i --negotiate -L -u : "http://172.19.115.50:14000/webhdfs/v1/filetoread?op=OPEN"
answers :

And I could reproduce Hue's error message by adding a user with the following curl request:
curl --negotiate -i -L -u: "http://172.19.115.50:14000/webhdfs/v1/filetoread?op=OPEN&user.name=theuser"
it answers :

It seems that there is no Kerberos negotiation between WebHDFS and curl.
I was expecting something like :

Any idea what could have gone wrong ?
I do have in my hdfs-site.xml on every node :
<property>
<name>dfs.webhdfs.enabled</name>
<value>true</value>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.web.authentication.kerberos.principal</name>
<value>HTTP/_HOST@MY-REALM.COM</value>
</property>
<property>
<name>dfs.web.authentication.kerberos.keytab</name>
<value>/etc/hadoop/conf/HTTP.keytab</value> <!-- path to the HTTP keytab -->
</property>
