#   Version 8.1.5
#
# This file maintains the credential information for a given app in Splunk Enterprise.
#
# There is no global, default passwords.conf. Instead, anytime a user creates
# a new user or edit a user onwards hitting the storage endpoint
# will create this passwords.conf file which gets replicated
# in a search head clustering enviornment.
# Note that passwords.conf is only created from 6.3.0 release.
#
# You must restart Splunk Enterprise to reload manual changes to passwords.conf.
#
# To learn more about configuration files (including precedence) please see the
# documentation located at
