[jira] [Commented] (ACCUMULO-364) Security Policy file should be an example

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-364?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13272557#comment-13272557 ] 

Adam Fuchs commented on ACCUMULO-364:
-------------------------------------

This is still a valid ticket, but now that we have the examples directory we should have a subdirectory with the policy file and a README that says to combine the contents of multiple directories within the examples directory to get a complete configuration.

> Currently there is a security policy file which has been tuned for a somewhat specific configuration. As of 1.4, we've designed it to fail open, such that no file means open security policy. We should change the default policy file to an example file, this way we can be more confident the system works out of the box. Then users can go about renaming to begin using the security policy should they chose to do so.
