All Implemented Interfaces:

public class ProxyUserAuthenticator
extends HadoopDefaultAuthenticator

ProxyUserAuthenticator extends HadoopDefaultAuthenticator but honours a proxy config setting proxy.user.name instead of the current user if set. This allows server processes like webhcat which proxy other users to easily specify an override if allowed. It is no longer necessary to use this class with WebHCat as of Hive 0.14.
