Comment 4 for bug 1518203

Reading the developer docs it looks like this is only required if you are using one of SAML, Kerberos, or OAuth1.0 - is that actually the case in the install guide? Notably even if you do set OS_AUTH_TYPE It looks like you are expected to specify an auth type, not the password (because you are explicitly saying you are *not* using user/pass authentication which works without setting the auth type).
