------------------------------------------
Hi Suresh,
Thanks for looking into this.
The problem we came across was -- at times, multiple (2 in our case) users
might write to the same file (at least attempt to open the file)
simultaneously, because the hadoop.security.log.file is set to the same value.
Please let me know if I am missing something here.
Thanks
> Conflict: Same security.log.file for multiple users.

> In log4j.properties, hadoop.security.log.file is set to SecurityAuth.audit.
> In the presence of multiple users, this can lead to a potential conflict.
> Adding username to the log file would avoid this scenario.
