---------------------------------------------------------------

I thought about how to leverage the code in {{SSLFactory}} but I wasn't sure 
how to do so, given that {{SSLFactory}} uses configurations from a separate 
file entirely ({{ssl-client.xml}} / {{ssl-server.xml}} by default) whereas the 
LDAP SSL configurations are all specified in the standard Configuration 
locations. We could create a new {{ssl-ldap.xml}}, but this seems like it might 
be overkill, and we would still need to support the old configurations for 
backwards compatibility. But I'm open to suggestions on how to better combine 
them; I'll also think more about it.

I think it's also worth noting that, AFAIK, I'm just using the default 
algorithms, which should match the same behavior prior to this patch.

> When debugging an issue where one of our server components was unable to 
> communicate with other components via SSL, we realized that LdapGroupsMapping 
> sets its SSL configurations globally, rather than scoping them to the HTTP 
> clients it creates.

> Notice the {{System.setProperty()}} calls, which will change settings 
> JVM-wide. This causes issues for other SSL clients, which may rely on the 
> default JVM truststore being used. This behavior was initially introduced by 
> HADOOP-8121, and extended to include the truststore configurations in 
> HADOOP-12862.
> The correct approach is to use a mechanism which is scoped to the LDAP 
> requests only. The right approach appears to be to use the 
> {{java.naming.ldap.factory.socket}} parameter to set the socket factory to a 
> custom SSL socket factory which correctly sets the key and trust store 
> parameters. See an example [here|https://stackoverflow.com/a/4615497/4979203].
