Allen Wittenauer commented on HDFS-9525:
----------------------------------------
I've reverted the patch.
bq. except the multiple token file support which is what this jira purported to
do.
Well, no. The whole underlying point of this JIRA is to fix WebHDFS which
despite "[t]remendous effort" doesn't work with multiple Kerberos realms that
don't have an established trust when using something like distcp.

> When using the webhdfs:// filesystem (especially from distcp), we need the
> ability to inject a delegation token rather than webhdfs initialize its own.
