Shiva: As far as I know, sqoop is only available bundled with Cloudera's distribution (CDH). That said, you may be able to download the tarball version of CDH and just pull sqoop out of it. I've never tried this, though, and I don't know if Sqoop depends on anything specific in CDH. Someone from Cloudera might be able to fill in the blanks here. For what it's worth, CDH2 is a great distribution with some nice packaging and configuration layout on top of the ASF distro along with some helpful patches. It's worth checking out. The tarball version of CDH is available at: http://archive.cloudera.com/cdh/testing/hadoop-0.20.1+152.tar.gz Best of luck! -- Eric Sammer [email protected] http://esammer.blogspot.com
