Raymie Stata commented on HADOOP-10428:
---------------------------------------

{code}
+    // Get the password from the conf, if not present from the user's 
environment
+    String pw = conf.get(KEYSTORE_PASSWORD_KEY,
+        System.getenv(KEYSTORE_PASSWORD_ENV_VAR));
{code}
Should the search order be env then conf (ie, env overrides conf) instead?

>       JavaKeyStoreProvider should accept keystore password via configuration 
> falling back to ENV VAR

> Currently the password for the {{JavaKeyStoreProvider}} must be set in an ENV 
> VAR.
> Allowing the password to be set via configuration enables applications to 
> interactively ask for the password before initializing the 
> {{JavaKeyStoreProvider}}.
