Previous I have met the same problem. Hadoop use linux command
"whoami" to
retrieve the current user, which is not supported in solaris.
In the security work (slated for 0.22), we are replacing the whoami
with using the JAAS interface, which is more portable and should
remove this problem.
For a while there has been a jira about removing all of the cases
where we currently fork a subprocess and replacing it with a jni
library. It would be lovely if someone did that. *smile*
