Switching to a new > enhanced authentication scheme thus means being cut off from using cqlsh in > normal operation. > We should have a means of using the same plugins and authentication providers > as the Python Cassandra driver. > Here's a link to an initial draft of > [CEP|https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_G-OZCAEmDyuQuAN2wQUYUtZBEJpMkHWnkYELLhqvKc/edit?usp=sharing]. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.1#820001) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: commits-unsubscr...@cassandra.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: commits-h...@cassandra.apache.org
