External Authentication for Casssandra in DSE 4.7

[Santosh B]

Hi,

"Am not sure if it is a right group but I didnt find any other forums where i can post or get answeres related to it...so plz suggest....."

We are trying to implement external authentication to Cassandra on DSE 4.7. Followed few of the guides where we have to extend IAuthenticator class but after doing that there is less documentation on how to integrate.

Is it more of plug and play where we extend IAuthenticator class build a jar and place it in lib(/usr/share/dse/resources/cassandra/lib) and change the yaml file accordingly or is it take a source code from Github build entire tree and then use?

        If so is Datastax's Cassandra available on Github?

What do we need to do to build external authentication other that LDAP and Kerberos in DSE 4.7?

 

Thanks,

Santosh B

Hi,

I think the idea is to add your custom JAR in Cassandra's `lib` directory. To have Cassandra classes in your development classpath your can depend on cassandra-all.

The cassandra-user mailing list is probably a better place to ask this. Or support since you're using DSE.
