Aaron T. Myers commented on HDFS-4295:
--------------------------------------
Hi liuyang, we should really continue this conversation on the
[email protected] mailing list, since it's not an issue with this
bug/patch. The short answer to your question is: you have to start the DN as
root, and make sure that the HADOOP_SECURE_DN_USER environment variable is set
to 'hdfs' so that the DN knows which user to switch to.
If you have any more questions about this, please email [email protected].

> In SecureDataNodeStarter:
> {code}
> if ((ss.getLocalPort() >= 1023 || listener.getPort() >= 1023) &&
> UserGroupInformation.isSecurityEnabled()) {
> throw new RuntimeException("Cannot start secure datanode with
> unprivileged ports");
> }
> {code}
> This prohibits using port 1023, but this should be okay because only root can
> listen to ports below 1024.
> We can change the >= to >.
