Mike Percy commented on FLUME-997:
----------------------------------

+1

Let's get this into Flume 1.4. I have a couple more points of feedback but I will file those in a follow-up JIRA:

1. If the server is configured for SSL but the keystore isn't there, the service should not start.
2. We should fall back to the default behavior of the X509 TrustManagerFactory if there is no trust store specified by passing a null KeyStore, no need to look in the classpath for cacerts.

> Flume needs support for a secure network transport protocol. See AVRO-898 for a patch that made it into Avro 1.6.0 that allows us to do this relatively easily.
