    Description

      Accumulo currently stores user information and passwords in zookeeper. Historically Hadoop had users with no passwords. Hadoop has moved to using Kerberos for authenticating users. It seem like Accumulo should move to this inorder to work w/ the rest of the ecosystem. Need to determine if this is feasible and develop a design. I suspect the end result will move authentication to Kerberos and still store Accumulo specific user info in zookeeper.
