>
> Both gfsh connect and gfsh start server allow the specification on the 
> command line of a user name and a password for use as credentials in 
> authentication.  Clear text versions of the user name and password are then 
> visible
> 1. if the user runs gfsh history
> 2. in historyfile, if the user runs gfsh history --file=historyfile
> 3. in the output of ps
> It would be worth a check to see if clear text versions of the user or 
> password end up in any locator or server logs.  I don't believe it does for 
> gfsh connect, but it might for the start server case.
