[jira] [Commented] (HADOOP-7229) Absolute path to kinit in auto-renewal thread

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7229?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13021098#comment-13021098 ] 

Owen O'Malley commented on HADOOP-7229:
---------------------------------------

This is at the very least an incompatible change, since any site that doesn't have kinit on the hdfs and mapred account's path will break.

That said, I think it is the right direction.

Please update the release note field in the jira to describe that.

> In the auto-renewal thread for Kerberos credentials in {{UserGroupInformation}}, the path to {{kinit}} is defaulted to {{/usr/kerberos/bin/kinit}}. This is the default path to {{kinit}} on RHEL/CentOS for MIT krb5, but not on Debian/Ubuntu (and perhaps others OSes.)
