Consume starting at the next incoming message

Hi all, 

 an 0.8 n00b question: how does one start consuming at the current end of the stream?
In other words, how does a consumer wind the entire topic through upon connection?


Thank you,

If you are using ZookeeperConsumerConnector, you can delete your
consumers state from zookeeper (/consumers/<your-consumer-group>) and
then restart the consumer with the auto.offset.reset option set to
"largest"

Thanks,
Neha
