Hi Tanton,
As of Hadoop 0.17, you can add jars on the command line:
bin/hadoop jar -libjars foo.jar,baz.jar your-job.jar
Pre 0.17, you can do this in your job configuration:
DistributedCache.addFileToClassPath(new Path("/lib/foo.jar"), jobconf);
And then upload foo.jar before running your job:
bin/hadoop fs -put foo.jar /lib/foo.jar
