Exporting gateway public cert for client truststores.
> Knox shell client is susceptible to man-in-the-middle attack

> Key: KNOX-733
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KNOX-733
> Project: Apache Knox
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: chris snow
> Assignee: chris snow
> Fix For: 0.10.0
>
>
> The Knox shell client does not verify the certificate of the server.
> One option would be to provide another method where developers can provide
> their own client, e.g.
> public static Hadoop login( String url, String username, String password,
> HttpClient client ) throws URISyntaxException { }
> https://github.com/apache/knox/blob/master/gateway-shell/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/gateway/shell/Hadoop.java#L60
> I can provide a patch if you are happy with this approach.
