Hi all,
I have made changes to the hadoop-0.18.2 code to allow hadoop super user access
only from some specified IP Range. If it is untrusted IP, it throws an
exception. I would like to add it as a patch so that people can use it if
needed in their environment. Can some one tell me what is the procedure to
create a patch? I could see from trunk code that there is some work related to
it happening. Especially, I am looking at Server.java code
(PrivilegedActionException being thrown for untrusted user I believe).Can some
one please clarify if it is written for the purpose that we are
discussing(validating whether it is trusted super user from a specific remote
IP)? If it is not, then I would like to add my patch.
Follow the advice on http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/HowToContribute ; the
developer mailing list and hadoop issues are the ways to discuss this.
New features go onto SVN_HEAD, so checking out and building that will be
your first bit of work.
