Gera Shegalov updated HDFS-5821:
--------------------------------

    Description: testHDFSConf.xml uses regexes inconsistently to match the 
username from {code}[a-zA-z0-9]*{code} to {code}[a-z]*{code}. This by far does 
not cover the space of possible OS user names.  For us, it fails for a user 
name containing {{'-'}}. Instead of keeping updating regex, we propose to use 
the macro USERNAME.  (was: testHDFSConf.xml uses regexes inconsistently to 
match the username from {{[a-zA-z0-9]*}} to {{[a-z]*}}. This by far does not 
cover the space of possible OS user names.  For us, it fails for a user name 
containing a {{-}}. Instead of keeping updating regex, we propose to use the 
macro USERNAME.)
