             Summary: Let a storm topology run as the user that launched it
                 Key: STORM-226
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STORM-226
             Project: Apache Storm (Incubating)
          Issue Type: Sub-task
            Reporter: Robert Joseph Evans


We should optionally let a storm topology run as the user that launched it, 
instead of as the headless user that storm is running as.

This requires a bit of native code with special privileges to make this work.  
We borrowed some code from Hadoop that already does this for them, and through 
the magic of sed turned it into something we can use.

This also includes code to keep the log files for different topologies separate 
from one another.  It also requires that there is an external process that will 
clean up those logs.  For this we selected the logviewer daemon and have added 
the necessary code there too.
