I am trying to connect to `HiveServer2` via `JDBC` drivers from `R` using `RJDBC` package. I have seen a broad explanation on passing additional arguments to `dbConnect` wrapper for various `drivers`([What arguments can I pass to dbConnect?](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/26119142/what-arguments-can-i-pass-to-dbconnect)), but there appear that situation with `JDBCDriver` is a bit tricker than for other drivers. I can connect to `HiveServer2` under this specific URL adress `url = paste0("jdbc:hive2://", host = 'tools-1.hadoop.srv', ":", port = 10000, "/loghost;auth=noSasl")` . The correspoding code works and enables me to write statements on `Hive` from `R` 

```
library(RJDBC)
dbConnect(drv = JDBC(driverClass = "org.apache.hive.jdbc.HiveDriver",
                     classPath = c("/opt/hive/lib/hive-jdbc-1.0.0-standalone.jar",
                                   "/usr/share/hadoop/share/hadoop/common/lib/commons-configuration-1.6.jar",
                                   "/usr/share/hadoop/share/hadoop/common/hadoop-common-2.4.1.jar"),
                     identifier.quote = "`"), # to juz niekoniecznie jest potrzebne
          url = paste0("jdbc:hive2://", host = 'tools-1.hadoop.srv', ":", port = 10000, "/loghost;auth=noSasl"),
          username = "mkosinski") -> conn

```

I am wondering if there is a way to pass arguments such as database name (`loghost`) or a no\_authentication\_mode (`auth=noSasl`) to `...` in `dbConnect` such that I could only specify standard URL address (`url = paste0("jdbc:hive2://", host = 'tools-1.hadoop.srv', ":", port = 10000)`) and somehow pass the rest of parametrs like this

```
library(RJDBC)
dbConnect(drv = JDBC(driverClass = "org.apache.hive.jdbc.HiveDriver",
                     classPath = c("/opt/hive/lib/hive-jdbc-1.0.0-standalone.jar",
                                   "/usr/share/hadoop/share/hadoop/common/lib/commons-configuration-1.6.jar",
                                   "/usr/share/hadoop/share/hadoop/common/hadoop-common-2.4.1.jar"),
                     identifier.quote = "`"), # to juz niekoniecznie jest potrzebne
          url = paste0("jdbc:hive2://", host = 'tools-1.hadoop.srv', ":", port = 10000),
          username = "mkosinski", dbname = "loghost", auth = "noSasl") -> conn

```

But the second approach doesn't look to work, despite the various combinations of names and values of additional arguments I try.

**Does anyone know how to pass additional arguments to DBI::dbConnect through `...` parameter for `JDBCDriver`?**
