Allen Wittenauer commented on MAPREDUCE-320:
--------------------------------------------

I'm tempted to close this as won't fix.  The fundamental problem is that the MR 
framework (and all other Hadoop systems) need to a way to distinguish a process 
as the same host on machines with multiple interfaces.  This is certainly 
fixable... and the various token systems we have floating around may actually 
do that.  But it's a tremendous amount of work (especially from a security 
perspective) and I don't see much interest in doing that work.

> Map/Reduce should use IP addresses to identify nodes rather than hostnames
