Lefty Leverenz commented on HIVE-7175: -------------------------------------- Doc note: This should be documented in the Beeline section of HiveServer2 Clients, with version information for 1.2.0 and a link to this issue for the 0.13 patch. * [HiveServer2 Clients -- Beeline Command Options | https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/HiveServer2+Clients#HiveServer2Clients-BeelineCommandOptions] > Provide password file option to beeline > --------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-7175 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-7175 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: CLI, Clients > Affects Versions: 0.13.0 > Reporter: Robert Justice > Assignee: Dr. Wendell Urth > Labels: TODOC1.2, features, security > Fix For: 1.2.0 > > Attachments: HIVE-7175.1.patch, HIVE-7175.1.patch, HIVE-7175.2.patch, > HIVE-7175.branch-13.patch, HIVE-7175.patch > > > For people connecting to Hive Server 2 with LDAP authentication enabled, in > order to batch run commands, we currently have to provide the password openly > in the command line. They could use some expect scripting, but I think a > valid improvement would be to provide a password file option similar to other > CLI commands in hadoop (e.g. sqoop) to be more secure. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
