+     who can access the default servlets in the namenode, etc. The value
+     should be a comma separated list of users and groups. The user list
+     comes first and is separated by a space followed by the group list,
+     e.g. "user1,user2 group1,group2". Both users and groups are optional,
+     so "user1", " group1", "", "user1 group1", "user1,user2 group1,group2"
+     are all valid (note the leading space in " group1"). '*' grants access
+     to all users and groups, e.g. '*', '* ' and ' *' are all valid.
