beeline does not seem to be connecting remotely. It works if I connect using the embedded client. I am using all the default configurations, except I configured my hiveserver2 thrift port to 11000. If I put in the database name after the port number, it will prompt me for a username and password. I just put in anything, but that doesn't seem to work. I thought that by default there should be no authentication.
