> For people connecting to Hive Server 2 with LDAP authentication enabled, in order to batch run commands, we currently have to provide the password openly in the command line.   They could use some expect scripting, but I think a valid improvement would be to provide a password file option similar to other CLI commands in hadoop (e.g. sqoop) to be more secure.
