It was able to connect to the correct hiveserver2 (I can run queries against it). I don't have any authentication setup (as far as I know) on the Hiveserver2 side. Besides I am able to connect to it just fine using the hacky method described above. Although I would like to connect to it in code (using a java jdbc client) so the hacky method won't work. Thanks!
