Vinod K V commented on HADOOP-6715:
-----------------------------------

Argh.. that is confusing too.. one final jab at it:

||ACL||Message||
|user1,user2 group1,group2|Users user1,user2 and members of the groups group1,group2 are allowed|
|user1,user2 |Users user1,user2 are allowed|
| group1,group2|Members of the groups group1,group2 are allowed|
| (blank space) | No users are allowed|
|*(asterisk)| All users are allowed|
How about that? (Nothing is easy around here.. )

> AccessControlList.toString() returns empty string when we set the acl to "\*" and also when we set it to empty(i.e. " "). This is causing wrong values for ACLs shown on jobdetails.jsp and jobdetailshistory.jsp web pages when acls are set to "\*".
> I think AccessControlList.toString() needs to be changed to return "\*" when we set the acl to "\*".
