title: Running sqoop on remote client machine
body: <p>I am trying to run sqoop import from a client machine using java. I'll be following sqoop client api file. </p>
  
  <p>I had the following query</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>The machine from which I am running the client java class need not have hadoop installed on it</li>
  <li>I have cloudera 5.5.1 installed on this system and it has sqoop installed, can I make use of it</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>Please pardon me if I am asking silly questions. I have implemented sqoop from cli but struggling with remote access</p>
