All, thanks for your responses. Some helpful information I inadvertently left out:
1. I did the /opt/opium/bin/sync_users --force trick. Nope. 2. I am not suggesting to let users login into the compute nodes. Been there, done that. It is for large installations a huge mess and a tremendous waste of money. 3. I am also not contemplating to use the compute nodes for job submission. 4. Given all that, I still can only submit jobs from the head node. How do I let the server know that host X is OK to submit (just that!) jobs ? I can't revamp our entire network to be OSCAR-only. I need the ability for an arbitrary box to be able to submit jobs. Problem is, the server does not let me. Any hints are greatly appreciated. regards, Mike Franz Marini wrote: > On Thu, 31 Oct 2002, Wendy Lin wrote: > > > >Now, the main question is, why the hell would you want to submit jobs > > >*from* the nodes ?
