All, thanks to Wendy, I made some progress:
qmgr -c "set acl_host_enable=1" qmgr -c "set acl_hosts=*.oscar" *.oscar is my private subnet. Some of those nodes are meant to be submit nodes. Anyway, I still cannot submit a job from anywhere else but the head node, and I have the following snipppet out of the server log: 10/31/2002 10:16:03;0100;PBS_Server;Req;;Type 19 request received from [EMAIL PROTECTED], sock=10 10/31/2002 10:16:52;0100;PBS_Server;Req;;Type 49 request received from [EMAIL PROTECTED], sock=12 10/31/2002 10:16:52;0100;PBS_Server;Req;;Type 9 request received from [EMAIL PROTECTED], sock=11 10/31/2002 10:16:52;0001;PBS_Server;Svr;PBS_Server;No such file or directory (2) in save_acl, unable to open acl file 10/31/2002 10:16:52;0004;PBS_Server;Svr;PBS_Server;attributes set: at request of [EMAIL PROTECTED] 10/31/2002 10:16:52;0004;PBS_Server;Svr;PBS_Server;attributes set: acl_hosts = *.oscar 10/31/2002 10:16:55;0100;PBS_Server;Req;;Type 49 request received from [EMAIL PROTECTED], sock=12 10/31/2002 10:16:55;0100;PBS_Server;Req;;Type 21 request received from [EMAIL PROTECTED], sock=11 Where does the PBS server store its ACL files ? regards, Mike Mike Mettke wrote: > All, > > thanks for your responses.
