Cause: Previously, Matahari was not able to use kerberos for authentication. Consequence: A customer that wished to use kerberos was not able to. Change: Matahari has been updated to use QMFv2. One of the side effects of this migration is gaining the ability to use kerberos authentication. Result: kerberos auth is now supported

Description Perry Myers 2011-03-16 14:36:51 UTC 
Description of problem:
Right now matahari only supports using qpid simple password auth.  Need to tie into qpid's support for kerberos auth so that a service principal can be passed in.

This is good to go, marking as verified.
