Steve Loughran commented on HDFS-3932:
--------------------------------------
BTW, has anyone tested this on
# box w/ multiple addresses
# box with totally broken networking that returns null instead of a hostname/IP
addr. One of mine with a buggy resolv.conf had this. Such a box is beyond hope
-the goal should just be to bail out with a message saying "your network is
broken", instead of a stack trace.
Networking is one area that has higher variance across installations than any
other -and a high variance in understanding, especially for people setting up
pseudo clusters. Hadoop needs to fail in a way that lets them know it's their
problem, not the Hadoop codebase.

> If {{dfs.namenode.rpc-address}} is set to the wildcard some of links in the
> dfsnodelist.jsp and browseDirectory.jsp pages are broken because the nnaddr
> field is passed verbatim (eg nnaddr=0.0.0.0:8021).
