Is it using a specific user/password combination? I know the User Sync has rangerusersync user and pass, and all that information is stored in rangerusersync.jceks, but what about the HDFS plugin or any other plugin? I'm having issues with that, my plugin once enabled doesn't get displayed in the UI and would like to check the credentials the plugin is using to use the API. For the User Sync - Policy Manager communication works fine. Thanks.
