[Q&A] Unable to setup fluentd-kafka using SASL_PLAINTEXT protocol using GSSAPI mechanism

[Jyothsnadpriya]

What is a problem?

Issue: We are consuming data from kafka to fluentd using PLAINTEXT protocol but as per organization mandate we are supposed to upgrade the security protocol to SASL_PLAINTEXT using GSSAPI. While doing the protocol upgrade, we are seeing an error while accessing the principal.

E.g. principal used is "[email protected]"

We see that principal instance was corrupted as "www12@[email protected]" instead of "[email protected]"

could you please suggest on how to resolve this issue
