Hello there 👋  
I'm trying to configure reindex from remote on an ECK instance with ES version 6.8.15

I feel I've configured everything correctly but still get the infamous "not authorized".

This is the configuration on the manifest part:

```auto
    nodeSets:
      - name: master-nodes
        count: 1
        config:
          node.master: true
          reindex.remote.whitelist: 1.2.3.4:9200

```

And this is the resulting elasticsearch.yaml file:

```
node:
  attr:
    k8s_node_name: ${NODE_NAME}
  master: true
  name: ${POD_NAME}
path:
  data: /usr/share/elasticsearch/data
  logs: /usr/share/elasticsearch/logs
reindex:
  remote:
    whitelist: 1.2.3.4:9200

```

Quering the `/_cluster/settings` does not show the reindex setting, not even with `show_defaults`.

The same configuration has been applied to master and data nodes.

Any hint?  
Thank you
