Hi Folks,
I'm still lost on this. Has no one wanted or needed to connect to a
Hadoop cluster from a client machine under a name other than the
client's whoami before?

I tried this, and it doesn't seem to work. Specifically, the way I
tested it was adding:
<property>
<name>user.name</name>
<value>[my_username]</value>
</property>
to core-site.xml. I then tried a test mkdir, and did an ls which
showed the new folder had been created by my default whoami client
username instead of the new one I had set. Do I need to add it
somewhere else, or add something else to the property name? I'm using
CDH3 with my Hadoop cluster currently setup with one node in
pseudo-distributed mode, in case that helps.
Cheers,
Eli

Set the user.name property in your core-site.xml on your client nodes.

Hi,
If I have one username on a hadoop cluster and would like to set
myself up
to use that same username from every client from which I access the
cluster,
how can I go about doing that? I found information about setting
hadoop.job.ugi, and have tried setting this property variously in
hdfs-site.xml, core-site.xml, and mapred-site.xml, but nothing seems to
work. All I want is to be able to look like the same user no matter
which of
my machines I connect to the cluster from. How can I do this?
Thanks!
Eli
