Is there a way that I can setup directories in dfs for individual users and set 
the permissions such that only that user can read write such that if I do a 
"hadoop dfs -ls" I would get "/user/user1 /user/user2 " etc each directory only 
being able to read and write to by the respective user?  I don't want to format 
an entire dfs filesystem for each user just let them have one sub-directory off 
of the main /users dfs directory that only they (and root) can read and write 
to.

Right now if I run a mapreduce app as any user but root I am unable to save the 
intermediate files in dfs.

Thanks!
