Hemanth Yamijala commented on HADOOP-6715:
------------------------------------------
We could solve the problem of All, Users, None etc being valid user names by
modifying the display string. Note that this is all primarily presentation
layer changes.
Firstly, I think displaying allowed users and groups separately in the UI would
make it much more user friendly - rather than sticking to our internal
representation.
So, we could say:
Allowed Users: a,b,c
Allowed Groups: d,e,f
When All or No users / groups have access, instead of saying:
"Users: All" or "Groups: None"
we could say
"All users can access job" or "No groups can access job"
Would this work ?

> AccessControlList.toString() returns empty string when we set the acl to "\*"
> and also when we set it to empty(i.e. " "). This is causing wrong values for
> ACLs shown on jobdetails.jsp and jobdetailshistory.jsp web pages when acls
> are set to "\*".
> I think AccessControlList.toString() needs to be changed to return "\*" when
> we set the acl to "\*".
