Scott Chen commented on HADOOP-6590:
------------------------------------
We have been using this script internally for a while.
It stops me from running things as root a few times.
I think it is a good feature to have.
Could someone help take a look at it?

> We experienced a case that sometimes we accidentally started HDFS or
> MAPREDUCE with root user. Then the directory permission will be modified and
> we have to chown them. It will be nice if there can be a username checking in
> the hadoop-daemon.sh script so that we always start with the desired username.
