Dustin Cote resolved MAPREDUCE-6567.
------------------------------------
Resolution: Invalid
[~templedf] yep thanks for pointing that out and I found my problem now. I had
a user who was using comma separated like:
"user1,user2,group1,group2"
I gave them:
"user1,user2,* group1,group2"
That one actually does work (by happenstance) since the '*' gets interpreted as
just another user. So I should have really gone with:
""user1,user2 group1,group2"
Confirmed that now. Closing this as invalid since I was clearly just reading
the doc incorrectly.

> The description of the mapreduce.job.acl-* in the mapred-default.xml shows
> the wrong syntax.
> {quote}
> For specifying a list of users and groups the format to use is "user1,user2
> group1,group". If set to '*', it allows all users/groups to modify this job.
> {quote}
> This doesn't actually work. The syntax that does work:
> {quote}
> For specifying a list of users and groups the format to use is "user1,user2
> group1,* group". If set to '*', it allows all users/groups to modify this job.
> {quote}
> The difference being that to make all members of a group have permissions for
> an ACL, the specification must be '* group' not just 'group'.
