You can use other authentication methods outlined in
http://research.cs.wisc.edu/htcondor/manual/current/3_8Security.html

For testing purposes, you can use CLAIMTOBE which does what it says on

use that on a production deployment, particularly if the network is
accessible externally.

There could be a few explanations. Do you allow inbound UDP traffic on
port 9618 on your central manager? Also look for log messages on both
ends that indicate a failure to send updates.

Try removing the `-n hostname.domain`.
