Allen Wittenauer updated HADOOP-6590:
-------------------------------------
Attachment: HADOOP-6590-02.patch
This patch will allow an admin to define HADOOP_command_USER to the user that
should only be allowed to execute that command.
For example, HADOOP_namenode_USER=hdfs will prevent the namenode from running
by anyone but the hdfs user.
> Add a username check in hadoop-daemon.sh

> 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.
