-------------------------------
Hi Kousuke,
Thanks for looking into this!
If you mean WebHDFS'
{{hadoop-hdfs-project/hadoop-hdfs/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hdfs/web/resources/UserProvider.java}},
then I don't see an RegEx in it currently. The only RegEx I've noticed is in
Domain there which am pretty sure is the reason it fails.
For HttpFs, we configure httpfs.user.provider.user.pattern with a more free-er
regex and then there's no problem with it. But WebHDFS has a problem.

> Key: HDFS-4983
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-4983
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: webhdfs
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0-alpha
> Reporter: Harsh J
>
> Per the file
> hadoop-hdfs-project/hadoop-hdfs/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hdfs/web/resources/UserParam.java,
> the DOMAIN pattern is set to: {{^[A-Za-z_][A-Za-z0-9._-]*[$]?$}}.
> Given this, using a username such as "123" seems to fail for some reason
> (tried on insecure setup):
> {code}
> [123@host-1 ~]$ whoami
> 123
> [123@host-1 ~]$ hadoop fs -fs webhdfs://host-2.domain.com -ls /
> -ls: Invalid value: "123" does not belong to the domain
> ^[A-Za-z_][A-Za-z0-9._-]*[$]?$
> Usage: hadoop fs [generic options] -ls [-d] [-h] [-R] [<path> ...]
> {code}
