Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-12751:
-----------------------------------------

oh, that's a problem. I'd assumed there was.

Do others have suggestions here? I don't want to go near JVM properties if we can avoid it, which leaves what? A secret environment variable? 

Maybe [~aw] will have an opinion?

> In the scenario of a trust between two directories, eg. FreeIPA (ipa.local) and Active Directory (ad.local) users can be made available on the OS level by something like sssd. The trusted users will be of the form 'user@ad.local' while other users are will not contain the domain. Executing 'id -Gn user@ad.local' will successfully return the groups the user belongs to if configured correctly. 
> However, it is assumed by Hadoop that users of the format with '@' cannot be correct. This code is in KerberosName.java and seems to be a validator if the 'auth_to_local' rules are applied correctly.
> In my opinion this should be removed or changed to a different kind of check or maybe logged as a warning while still proceeding, as the current behavior limits integration possibilities with other standard tools.
> Workaround are difficult to apply (by having a rewrite by system tools to for example user_ad_local) due to down stream consequences.
