Before
authenticator: AllowAllAuthenticator
After

Restart the Cassandra Service
Connect to it with the default username and password
> cqlsh -u cassandra -p cassandra 127.0.0.1 9042
Change the default user and password
> CREATE ROLE sillycat WITH PASSWORD = 'kaishi' AND SUPERUSER = true AND LOGIN = true;
Then I can login with the new info

Put the information similar to /.aws/
Create the directory if not exists
