Dear Alain Roy and Condor users,


Thank you for your advice.

We forgot to define the variable NETWORK_INTERFACE, that's the reason why condor daemons couldn't communicate.

<x-tad-bigger>It would seem that the possibility of leaving the variables HOSTALLOW_READ et HOSTALLOW_WRITE equal to '*' doesn't work. We defined them with the name of our domain and that works fine now on the G5 cluster.

We work with a cluster of G5 configured as a local network and with an other domain, a public one.
These two networks are connected via a Xserve G4 that has two ethernet cards.

We want to use the Xserve G4 as the central manager, the cluster G5 as agents and the public domain computers as submitters.
We have noted that some condor users have sent some information to do that with Red Hat.

<x-tad-bigger>Is this method the same with mac ?
Did someone already make this sort of installation with Mac ?</x-tad-bigger>
