Kafka SASL SCRAM

0 votes

Already that day in a row I have been trying unsuccessfully to configure SASL / SCRAM for Kafka. I will be grateful to everyone who can help. I have Kafka version 2.5.0 - https://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi?path=/kafka/2.5.0/kafka_2.12-2.5.0.tgz I also have the latest version of Zookeeper - https://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.lua/zookeeper/zookeeper-3.6.1/apache-zookeeper-3.6.1-bin.tar.gz

First I set up the zoo.cfg as follows:

dataDir=/home/duck/Public/zookeeper_logs
maxClientCnxns=0
authProvider.1=org.apache.zookeeper.server.auth.SASLAuthenticationProvider
requireClientAuthScheme=sasl
jaasLoginRenew=3600000

Next, I created a zookeeper jaas file:

zookeeper_jaas.conf

Server {
   org.apache.kafka.common.security.scram.ScramLoginModule required
   username="admin"
   password="admin-secret"
   user_admin="admin-secret";
};
QuorumServer {
       org.apache.zookeeper.server.auth.DigestLoginModule required
       user_admin="admin-secret";
};

QuorumLearner {
       org.apache.zookeeper.server.auth.DigestLoginModule required
       username="admin"
    password="admin-secret"
    user_admin="admin-secret";
};

Next, I set up the jvm: SERVER_JVMFLAGS = "- Djava.security.auth.login.config = / home / duck / Public / zookeeper / zk_jaas.conf" After that i launched Zookeeper: $zkHome/bin/skServer.sh start

Next, I created a JAAS file for kafka:

kafka_server_jaas.conf:

KafkaServer {
   org.apache.kafka.common.security.scram.ScramLoginModule required
   username="admin"
   password="admin-secret"
   user_admin="admin-secret";
};



Client {
   org.apache.kafka.common.security.scram.ScramLoginModule required
   username="admin"
   password="admin-secret";
};

After I executed:

export KAFKA_OPTS="-Djava.security.auth.login.config=/home/duck/Public/kafka/config/kafka_server_jaas.conf"

The settings for Kafka broker are as follows:

server.properties

############################# Server Basics #############################

# The id of the broker. This must be set to a unique integer for each broker.
broker.id=0

# Use below for SASL/SCRAM only (No SSL)
# For rest of the brokers change port (highlighted below) to 9091 and 9092
# Using SASL_PLAINTEXT as we do not have SSL
listeners=SASL_PLAINTEXT://localhost:9092
security.inter.broker.protocol=SASL_PLAINTEXT
sasl.mechanism.inter.broker.protocol=SCRAM-SHA-256

############################# Zookeeper #############################

zookeeper.connection.timeout.ms=18000

  • If it matters, I use Java-13 After all the settings, the Kafka server starts up, and even works for a while, after which it generates errors of the following kind:

Hi@progDuck,

By default it is connecting to localhost:2181, since there is no zookeeper server running on client host so it fails. So specify zookeeper server and port in your command then it will work.

Hope this helps!

To know more about Kafka, I would recommend you to enroll with Kafka training online today.

Thanks.
