Tom White commented on HADOOP-2426:
-----------------------------------
This is still a problem for Tiger, but not for Leopard. If we still need to fix
we could iterate through the groups until there's one that's no more than 8
characters and use that.

> Key: HADOOP-2426
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2426
> Project: Hadoop Core
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: fs
> Affects Versions: 0.15.1
> Reporter: Tsz Wo (Nicholas), SZE
>
> In Mac, group name can be more than 8 characters, e.g. "appserveradm".
> However, "ls -ld" truncates it to 8 characters, i.e. it shows "appserve" for
> the previous group name. Therefore, the test fails since
> "appserveradm".equals("appserve") returns false.
> Not sure whether similar problem exists in other OS.
