Christophe Taton updated HADOOP-1298: ------------------------------------- Attachment: 1298_2007-09-22_1.patch Here is a new patch. Permissions are now represented: - with user IDs internally (server-side) - with user names externally (client-side) I updated the web interface and the command-line {{FsShell}} to display permissions as a 9 characters string (rwxrwxrwx) and user names (instead of IDs). The user database is stored in a static properties file which follows the format: {{<username>:<user id>}}. This properties file name is defined in {{hadoop-site.xml}} with the configuration property {{user.database.file}} which will by default refer to a file named "{{userdb.properties}}". There is no user management in this implementation. JUnit tests are fine here. This still lacks an automatic setting of ownership when upgrading for {{/user/<username>}} directories. > adding user info to file > ------------------------ > > Key: HADOOP-1298 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1298 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: dfs, fs > Reporter: Kurtis Heimerl > Assignee: Christophe Taton > Fix For: 0.15.0 > > Attachments: 1298_2007-09-06b.patch, 1298_2007-09-07g.patch, > 1298_2007-09-22_1.patch, hadoop-user-munncha.patch17 > > > I'm working on adding a permissions model to hadoop's DFS.
