'hadoop hdfs dfs -ls' is not correct. You should use 'hdfs dfs -ls <path>' to access HDFS.
For more details, see http://hadoop.apache.org/docs/r2.0.6-alpha/hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-common/FileSystemShell.html
FYI: It's preferred to use user@hadoop.apache.org if you have a question. hdfs-issues@ is to track HDFS JIRA changes.
