RE: [Condor-users] WinXP - Condor 6.6.9 - Condor_Store_Cred problems



Sean,

 

I’m running my pool in exactly this fashion and it does work.  Your end-user’s credentials are only involved on the submitting node, the domain\Condor user credentials are used on the execution node.  Each human user must store their credentials on their submitting node/workstation.  Condor uses those credentials to make sure the submitting user has sufficient privileges to run a shadow on the submitting machine (in my understanding anyway.)  

 

The key to making this work is that you must log into each EXECUTION node as user domain\CONDOR and run CONDOR_STORE_CRED.  If you don’t have stored credentials for the domain\CONDOR user, Condor can’t complete the login as that user and therefore can’t run any jobs.  

 

Hope this helps.

 

-Bryan

Does anyone know when and why the stored credentials are used during the condor process?  This credential issue is the only thing causing me problems.  I would rather just allow EVERYTHING that Condor does to be done using the credentials stored for the “domain\Condor” user.  I am still getting problems with Condor wanting my remote machines to have the credentials stored for the submitting user.  This is the only issue keeping me from deploying Condor over our entire company.

I've found some trial and error necessary.

I found that each machine's condor_config file had to have the VM1_USER.

And that user CAN NOT be logged in at the time it's trying to run.

I also found I've had to make sure the machine is in read write list or store creditials itself just fails.

The user's manual is helpful but one has to closely reread some sections a few times and with some experimentation

things come to light.

I've seen most of this info in the mailing list which has been very helpful.

 

Regards

Andy

Ok, so I have adjusted sooo many settings in the config files to try and get this right, and still I have nothing.  My goal is to allow any user to submit jobs to the remote schedd running on a manager machine.  I have set the VM1_USER = domain\Condor as well as set SOFT_UID_DOMAIN = True and TRUST_UID_DOMAIN=True.  My problem is that the pool will only process jobs that have been submitted using the domain\Condor account.  Any other jobs give me this error in the ShadowLog log:

 

6/7 18:10:22 Initializing a VANILLA shadow

6/7 18:10:22 (150.1) (3916): ERROR: Could not locate credential for user ‘user@domain’

6/7 18:10:22 (150.1) (3916): init_user_ids() failed!

6/7 18:10:22 (150.1) (3916): ERROR: Could not locate credential for user ‘user@domain’

6/7 18:10:22 (150.1) (3916): ERROR "set_user_priv() failed!" at line 400 in file ..\src\condor_c++_util\uids.C

 

I have used condor_store_cred on each machine in the pool for the domain\Condor account. 

I am trying to get Condor to stop trying to verify that the submitting user is indeed a member of the domain.  The domain\Condor user has full administrative rights and should be fine for running anything that is submitted with its own credentials.  Please someone tell me how I might disable this feature. 

 

Thanks so much in advance!

 

Sean
