Raghu Angadi commented on HADOOP-1919:
--------------------------------------
Can some one run custom perl modules in Jetty?
As I understand, the localhost restriction is used so that someone can run some
other http server on external interfaces. At that time I was asked to help from
HDFS side for the proposed solution to work. W.r.t HDFS, it looks ok. Regd
distcp(), obviously we can not have security of any form if distcp does not
support it. So I guess if some one has to choose one of them, they might choose
security depending on sensitivity of the data.
