Hi,
Ok, I was digging around for this and it seems to be a bit more involved then I
expected.
Problem is I don't really understand the interplay of DRMAAJobRunner and the
user management.
Can somebody provide me with some pointers?
regards, Andreas

Hi,
after thinking more about this and also trying to get Apache use NIS (I failed
with that :-( )
I just came up with an idea for a different solution:
I don't use NIS for login into galaxy but when starting jobs I consult a
mapping file (or the
database) to map email addresses to know users. For unknown users I just
continue to use the
"galaxy" user. I guess a good starting point would be DRMAAJobRunner.queue_job
Do you see any bigger problems coming my way?
How best do I avoid to degress from the main tree to much?
regards, Andreas

Hi Andreas:
As far as I know Galaxy is designed to manage its own users and not to be
integrated in any other
platform. I think that the idea is to use galaxy as another user of your system.
Hi Alfonso,
Andreas is referring to recent changes that allow jobs to run as users other
than the single
Galaxy user that started the server process. See:
http://wiki.g2.bx.psu.edu/Admin/Config/Performance/Cluster#Submitting_Jobs_as_the_Real_User
Yes, that's what I wanted.

Hi,
I (re-)installed galaxy on our server and managed to set it up to run jobs
through our cluster
(GridEngine). It's also running behind an Apache proxy now.
But now I'm wondering how to setup to have the cluster jobs run as the real
cluster users. I
found the documentation on this topic a little thin.
We use NIS for managing users and passwords across the cluster. How do I
connect that to Galaxy?

Andreas,
You'll need to have Apache authenticate your users, as explained here:
http://wiki.g2.bx.psu.edu/Admin/Config/Apache%20Proxy
For NIS without Kerberos, you'd probably need to use mod_auth_pam to
authenticate through your
system's PAM stack.
Thanks, I will look into it.
regards, Andreas
