Hi, Does anyone know anything about the dfs.namenode.rpc-address parameter? I posted the below to the hdfs-user list but thought I might get a better response from the dev list.

I have multiple network interfaces so would like it to bind to 0.0.0.0. It looks like the property dfs.namenode.rpc-address was intended to be used for this purpose - but doesn't look like it was implemented. I have changed the code as in the following patch (against the trunk) and it seems to fix the issue but I'm not sure if this is OK. I also tried looking for JIRA entries but there seem to be a lot related to this so wasn't sure if I should post this to one of them or create a new one? Can somebody please have a look at the patch and advise what I should do? Thanks, David
