I recently got started using Hadoop and spent some time getting distributed Hadoop running on Windows. I didn't find much on Google about running on Windows and the docs are a tad vague on the subject. Anyway, for anyone that's interested, I've written up a guide based on my experience called Running Hadoop on Windows at http://hayesdavis.net/2008/06/14/running-hadoop-on-windows/
Hopefully I didn't duplicate work someone's done elsewhere and hopefully this will help anyone out there wanting to get started with distributed Hadoop on Windows. If anyone finds any issues in the guide or has questions, please let me know or just comment on the blog post. Thanks. Hayes -- Hayes Davis [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://hayesdavis.net
