> In 2.7.x we store LDAP password within its own file; however the content of
> that file is not encrypted even if password encryption is on. To approach
> this issue the following should be done:
> - in case password encryption is enabled we will encrypt the LDAP password
> in the credential store and write the corresponding CS alias in the LDAP
> password file (just like we do with other passwords in {{ambari.properties}})
> - in case the password encryption is disabled we will write the raw password
> in the LDAP password file
> In both cases an additional level of security can be achieved by setting the
> appropriate user/group access on the file system to the LDAP password file.
