>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-4691
>             Project: Geode
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: docs, gfsh, security
>            Reporter: Barbara Pruijn
>            Priority: Major
>
> When starting a locator in gfsh like this
> {code:java}
> start locator --name=locator1{code}
> the default behavior is to auto-connect gfsh to the locator.
> From the gfsh start locator help:
> {code:java}
> connect
> When connect is set to false , Gfsh does not automatically connect to the locator which is started
> using this command.
> Required: false
> Default (if the parameter is specified without value): true
> Default (if the parameter is not specified): true{code}
> When starting the locator with a Security Manager like this
> {code:java}
> start locator --name=locator1 --J=-Dgemfire.security-manager=org.apache.geode.examples.SimpleSecurityManager{code}
> The result is that gfsh does not auto connect to the locator. However this is not listed in the help command and is inconsistent in the user expectation.
>  
> Possible solutions:
>  1. Update gfsh help to correctly list the behavior when the Security Manager is set via the --J parameter
> 2. Add the options
> {code:java}
>  --user --password{code}
> to the start listener command
