Robert Justice created HIVE-7175: ------------------------------------ Summary: Provide password file option to beeline Key: HIVE-7175 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-7175 Project: Hive Issue Type: Improvement Components: CLI, Clients Affects Versions: 0.13.0 Reporter: Robert Justice
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. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
