Dear colleagues.
could you clarify : does Shield work with "type" : "basic" license

"license" : {
"status" : "active",
"uid" : "blablabla",
"type" : "basic",
....
In my case i see that Shield loaded
[2016-08-25 12:25:06,630][INFO ][http ] [Vincente] Using [org.elasticsearch.http.netty.NettyHttpServerTransport] as http transport, overridden by [shield]
[2016-08-25 12:25:06,833][INFO ][transport ] [Vincente] Using [org.elasticsearch.shield.transport.ShieldServerTransportService] as transport service, overridden by [shield]
[2016-08-25 12:25:06,833][INFO ][transport ] [Vincente] Using [org.elasticsearch.shield.transport.netty.ShieldNettyTransport] as transport, overridden by [shield]

But it allow any user there is no reject for
curl -XGET 'http://localhost:9200/'
{
"name" : "Vincente",
"cluster_name" : "elasticsearch",
"version" : {
"number" : "2.3.5",
"build_hash" : "blablabla",
"build_timestamp" : "2016-07-27T10:36:52Z",
"build_snapshot" : false,
"lucene_version" : "5.5.0"
},
"tagline" : "You Know, for Search"
}
[root@deskbook elasticsearch]#

or

 curl -u BLABLA -XGET 'http://localhost:9200/'
Enter host password for user 'BLABLA': anypassword
{
  "name" : "Vincente",
  "cluster_name" : "elasticsearch",
  "version" : {
    "number" : "2.3.5",
    "build_hash" : "blabla",
    "build_timestamp" : "2016-07-27T10:36:52Z",
    "build_snapshot" : false,
    "lucene_version" : "5.5.0"
  },
  "tagline" : "You Know, for Search"
}

Why there is no reject ?

Hi @dkspace,

Shield is not enabled with a basic license. If you would like to try out Shield, please contact info@elastic.co to request a trial license.

Hey Dmitriy,

I will send you a DM and we'll see if we can sort out why there wasn't a response, and get you a trial license extension.

Thanks,
Steve
