That is where security started out. However, it cannot go under conf as the content of that directory is gerated at runtime by the server. In Linux, conf directories (i.e. /etc/knox) are owned by by root and therefore the knox server (running as knox) cannot write there.

Wondering whether security needs to go under conf?
Thanks

For KNOX-226 I have a patch almost ready that changes the GATEWAY_HOME
layout from

What I have right now changes from the current layout

{GATEWAY_HOME}/
     conf/
         security/
     deployments
         sandbox.xml
         sandbox.war.*/

to this new layout which is more Linux friendly as conf and data will be
symlinks /etc/knox/conf and /var/lib/knox/data respectively.

{GATEWAY_HOME}/
     conf
         topologies/
             sandbox.xml
     data
         security/
         deployments/
             sandbox.war.*/

Does anyone have issues or concerns about this?
Any input on long names vs short names (sec vs security, wars vs
deployments, topo vs topologies, etc.)?
For example...

{GATEWAY_HOME}/
     conf
         topo/
             sandbox.xml
     data
         sec/
         wars/
             sandbox.war.*/
