Using "beeline -u -p" I can make it to prompt and be asked for the password, but it does not connect, seems the authentication it does is not working for me. On the error I see the jdbc string gets appended the "user=<username>. When running it with !connect it works, but I don't get the same prompt as before to input the password.
