Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-3437:
----------------------------------------

1. JobTracker should clearly recognise that the {{mapred.job.tracker}} ref is 
local, and refuse to play, with a more useful message. 

2. Erik, I think your problem is separate, and perhaps should be its own bugrep.

We should disable IPv6 anyway; created a bug report for that  HADOOP-6056 -as 
Ubuntu 9.04 doesnt let you turn IPv6 off in the kernel, doing it in Java is the 
best way to kill it.
