>                 Key: HDFS-1390
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-1390
>             Project: Hadoop HDFS
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: name-node, security
>    Affects Versions: 0.22.0
>            Reporter: Todd Lipcon
>            Priority: Critical

> The HDFS permissions guide still refers to {{dfs.web.ugi}}, and there are some vestiges in the code, but it no longer works post-security.
> We should either remove the vestiges entirely and document the servletfilter approach to securing the web UI, or preferably, we could make the StaticUserWebFilter (HADOOP-6832) respect this configuration parameter (possibly with deprecation).
