Robert Justice commented on HIVE-7175:
--------------------------------------
Great idea [~lmccay]. I'm open for whatever solution is the most secure for
users. Some users will require the password file to be encrypted or in a 3rd
party store, based on security policies and this would be a solution to that.
> 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
> Labels: features, security
>
> 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.
