Chris, What I have in mind is to use SimpleAuthenticator in conjuction with the access.properties and passwd.properties. This use case is actually somewhat personal. I have servers in the AWS cloud, during development and testing, I may connect from home or wireless points on the road. I don't want to be bothered with opening up the firewall based on the IP I have at that moment. So I am thinking to open up 9160 and use authentication to block unauthorized writes, which may corrupt the database. But I couldn't find any info on how to use SimpleAuthenticator in the scala client.
