> For people connecting to Hive Server 2 with LDAP authentication enabled, in
> order to batch run commands, we currently have to provide the password openly
> in the command line. They could use some expect scripting, but I think a
> valid improvement would be to provide a password file option similar to other
> CLI commands in hadoop (e.g. sqoop) to be more secure.
