> Configuring Ranger admin via the current mechanism (environment variables for initial user and then password stored in the database) could be considered insecure.
> Instead, it should be possible to switch off this behaviour and configure LDAP authentication/authorization to the Ranger admin UI and to specify an LDAP group for whom admin level privileges are required.
