I've been told off for commenting before but, I'd still look first at http://arc.liv.ac.uk/SGE/workshop10-12.09.07/K5SGE.pdf Ignore the now broken and incomplete Kerberos security mechanism, although OGS said they'll fix it as far as I remember. Its author recommended the GSS one instead. I got that building, but it's completely insecure, as noted in the reference above, and I think the AFS one has the same problem. I can't remember how current the information in http://arc.liv.ac.uk/repos/darcs/sge/source/security/security.html but I have some uncommitted updates. > I'm using the Debian Squeeze packages, but I can switch to a custom > install from any current fork. > > This link seems most promising, but more complicated than I like: > http://markmail.org/message/3vakrcunuyyw5euf I can't read that now -- markmail seems to be broken. _______________________________________________ users mailing list [email protected] https://gridengine.org/mailman/listinfo/users
