> OpenLDAP requires that when bind authenticating, the DN being supplied must
> be the creation DN of the account. Since, OpenLDAP allows for any attribute
> to be used when creating a DN for an account, organizations that don’t use
> hardcoded *uid* attribute won’t be able to utilize HiveServer2 LDAP
> authentication.
> HiveServer2 should support a configurable username attribute when
> constructing the bindDN
