Vinod K V commented on HADOOP-4491:
-----------------------------------

Here's an overview of the problem(with most of the input from [~sreekanth]):

*Objective*:
 - Setup secure permissions for task files and job files. Secure permissions 
means permission only to the user running the job (700).

*Problems to solve*:
With HADOOP-4490, framework is in place to run the user's process as the user 
himself/herself. To continue to run jobs successfully, HADOOP-4490 set 
permissions of all files to 777. The scope of this issue is o set secure 
permissions for these files. After setting these,
 - we should be able to run jobs successfully as a user different from the 
TaskTracker user,
 - all the files the user owns have to be set 700 permissions,
 - TT should continue to be able to serve map intermediate outputs to reduces 
and serve user-logs via TaskLogServlet.

*Issues involved:*
 - handling localization for tasks.
 - handling intermediate output files.
 - handling intermediate output serving.

> Per-job local data on the TaskTracker node should have right access-control
