Ray Chiang updated KAFKA-4294: ------------------------------ Component/s: security config > Allow password file in server.properties to separate 'secrets' from standard > configs > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-4294 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-4294 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: config, security > Reporter: Ryan P > Priority: Major > > Java's keytool(for Windows) allows you to specify the keystore/truststore > password with an external file in addition to a string argument. > -storepass:file secret.txt > http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/tools/windows/keytool.html > It would be nice if Kafka could offer the same functionality allowing > organizations to separate concerns between standard configs and 'secrets'. > Ideally Kafka would add a secrets file property to the broker config which > could override any ssl properties which currently exist within the broker > config. Since the secrets file property is only used to override existing > SSL/TLS properties the change maintains backward compatibility. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
