Ahmed Radwan commented on MAPREDUCE-4572:
-----------------------------------------

Thanks Todd, The patch adds a configuration property to control this behavior. 
So serving aliases can be disabled if needed (I mentioned that in my previous 
comment when discussing the security reasons and why we exposed this conf 
property). So we are basically here exposing the controls that Jetty already 
provides, and the users can make the decision, and based on the available 
security setup on their environment, they can make a decision of enabling or 
disabling this behavior. What do you think?
                
> Can not access user logs - Jetty is not configured by default to serve 
> aliases/symlinks
