Tsz Wo (Nicholas), SZE updated HADOOP-2652:
-------------------------------------------

    Attachment: 2652_20080124b.patch

*This is an incompatible change* since distcp may not be able to copy files 
from cluster A (compiled with this patch) to cluster B (compiled with previous 
versions).  The reason is that distcp starts a Med/Reduce job in cluster B.  
Then the job will use Hadoop library provided by cluster B to connect to 
cluster A.  If the connection scheme is hdfs://, it will work if they use the 
same RPC protocal.  If the connection scheme is hftp://, the job with old codes 
does not provide a ugi.  Then, the default web user account (see HADOOP-2614) 
will be used in cluster A for further permission checking.

For other cases listed below, distcp is tested to be working for hftp.
- cluster (compiled with this patch) -> cluster (compiled with this patch): 
*working* for both hftp and RPC
- cluster (compiled with previous versions) -> cluster (compiled with this 
patch): *working* for hftp
- cluster (compiled with previous versions) -> cluster (compiled with previous 
versions): *irrelevant*
