Hi hivedriver-site.xml is supposed to contain everything required to connect to the driver. It can contain the authentication properties. The properties should be same as http://www.cloudera.com/documentation/archive/cdh/4-x/4-2-0/CDH4-Security-Guide/cdh4sg_topic_9_1.html
I don't know whether it'll work or not, but I think this is a direction you should explore.
