[Condor-users] Question regarding running windows condor pool



Hi All,

I have a question regarding windows condor pool. I have around 20 windows PCs sitting idle (most of the time). Some are W2K and some Win XP SP2. These machines are clients of a Samba3 PDC. How will condor start jobs on these machines (under what user)? and does it mean that remote desktop or some similar software needs to be installed on these machines? As far as I know, user switching does not work in these machines as they are part of a domain, and what happens in this case with condor running a job and a user trying to physically logon to the box?
Sorry for the basic questions here, I work mostly on Linux.


Thanks,
Prakash
