> Today, the SolrAuthzBinding uses the SimpleFileProviderBackend, which ends up
> creating a configuration via:
> {code}
> new Configuration();
> {code}
> the issue with this is this might not be the Configuration we want -- for
> example, in a secure setup, it may not have all the
> authentication/authorization properties necessary to connect to hdfs to read
> the sentry .ini file. I'm not sure exactly how this works in hive, but it
> may be because hive has the relevant core-site.xml, hdfs-site.xml in its
> classpath, whereas in solr, this is uncommon.
> Solr does have a way to specify hdfs configs already via the
> HdfsDirectoryFactory and HdfsUtils. We should just reuse this.
