Re: [HTCondor-users] Starting condor automatically on Mac



Well that explains my problem doesn't it, I'll bet that what I have set is for the user Administrator. Thanks for your help!

Would you mind explaining what exactly CONDOR_IDS does, and how I should
know what to set it to?
Cody,

Here's the entry from section 3.3.3 of the manual:

CONDOR_IDS The User ID (UID) and Group ID (GID) pair that the HTCondor
daemons should run as, if the daemons are spawned as root. This value
can also be specified in the CONDOR_IDS environment variable. If the
HTCondor daemons are not started as root, then neither this CONDOR_IDS
configuration macro nor the CONDOR_IDS environment variable are used.
The value is given by two integers, separated by a period. For
example, CONDOR_IDS = 1234.1234. If this pair is not specified in
either the configuration file or in the environment, and the HTCondor
daemons are spawned as root, then HTCondor will search for a condor
user on the system, and run as that user's UID and GID. See section
3.6.13 on UIDs in HTCondor for more details.
