Bugs: RANGER-1005
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RANGER-1005
Repository: ranger
Description
-------
**Problem Statement :**
Currently Ranger user password can be changed from Ranger Admin UI only, Ranger
should have utility to change Ranger user password from command line also.
**Proposed Solution :**
Created a java based command line utility to accept three parameters : userid,
old password and new password. provided user id and old password will be
compared with existing password in DB; if both are same then
UserMgr.updatePasswordInSHA256(username,password) will be called to update the
password.
To make change password process easier a python script has been added which can
accept parameters like loginID, old password and new password. after validating
input parameters values python script will call above mentioned java class and
send received parameters as argument to change the password.
