title: Unable to setup hadoop multinode cluster without admin privileges
body: <p>I am trying to set up hadoop multi node cluster in linux, but i don't have admin privileges. I was referring to some video tutorials on <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DteSiloXesw" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DteSiloXesw</a> and many other.
   I always get struck on the step where i need to edit /etc/hosts file because i don't have admin rights. Is there any other hack or workaround so that i can set up multi node hadoop cluster without admin privileges.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
