Re: HDFS command giving error

[Akira AJISAKA <aj...@oss.nttdata.co.jp>]

'hadoop hdfs dfs -ls' is not correct.
You should use 'hdfs dfs -ls <path>' to access HDFS.

For more details, see 
http://hadoop.apache.org/docs/r2.0.6-alpha/hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-common/FileSystemShell.html

FYI: It's preferred to use user@hadoop.apache.org if you have a 
question. hdfs-issues@ is to track HDFS JIRA changes.

Thanks,
Akira
