So you can access the kafka broker based on hostname from any other machines as long as hostname is DNS resolved or add it to your /etc/hosts</P> Tue, 15 Dec 2015 01:52:37 GMT https://community.cloudera.com/t5/Support-Questions/Open-Kafka-to-requests-from-other-hosts/m-p/99229#M62298 schintalapani 2015-12-15T01:52:37Z
