Hi Lune,
These are two different properties that we are talking about here.
- *ranger.https.attrib.keystore.**file* : This property is for providing
the location of the server keystore certificate to be loaded ( Public CA
issued keystore ). You can find more info here.

- *ranger.credential.provider.**path* : This property is for providing
the location of local credential file, which will store DB /Audit DB /
LDAP Bind DN etc passwords using the Hadoop CredentialProvider.
For SSL you should look more into the ranger.https.attrib.keystore.file
property.
