It depends on what release of HDP you're using, in 2.5 the steps to install Kafka ranger plugin are here http://docs.hortonworks.com/HDPDocuments/HDP2/HDP-2.5.0/bk_security/content/kafka_plugin.html Kafka version is 0.10.0.1 and ranger is 0.6

I cannot say which is the best, but in production we configured HDP 2.4.2 with 0.5.2 Ranger and 0.9.0.1 Kafka and worked well. If you are going with newer version you might use newer versions of both :).

zookeeper has been 3.4.6 for the last few HDP versions.
