could this be an error in hadoop documentation of a bug

Hi, the Quick Start<http://hadoop.apache.org/core/docs/current/quickstart.html>has
this sample configuration

    <name>fs.default.name</name>
    <value>hdfs://localhost:9000</value>

but it does not seem to work: even though the daemons do listen to 9000, the
following command always uses 8020

hadoop fs -ls hdfs://localhost/

Also note that Tom White in his book never changes the hdfs port, so his
examples do work :)

I would call it an issue with hadoop, but if you never change the port, you
are OK.

Thank you,
Mark
