[Condor-devel] LocalCredd match is case sensitive

[Alexandre Fayolle <alexandre.fayolle@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I've hit what looks like a bug in condor 7.4.1: I have two computers running 
Windows 2k3. The first one is runs Condor as Central Manager + Credd, the other 
one is there to run jobs. 

In the config file for the central manager, I wrote:

CREDD_HOST = XS205803.MELINDA.local

In the config file for the computing unit, I wrote:

CREDD_HOST = xs205803.MELINDA.local

This seems to work fine, but jobs submitted to the central manager with 
Run_as_owner=True won't run. 

condor_q -analyze tells that the requirements for the job are:

Requirements = (Arch == "INTEL") && (OpSys == "WINNT52") && (Disk >= 
DiskUsage) && ((Memory * 1024) >= ImageSize) && (HasFileTransfer) && 
(HasWindowsRunAsOwner && (LocalCredd =?= "XS205803.MELINDA.local"))

And condor_status tells that the LocalCredd on the other machine is:

LocalCredd = "xs205803.MELINDA.local"

Since the test in the ClassAd is case sensitive (=?=) this does not match and 
the jobs sits in the queue. 

Why is a case sensitive match used in for that match? It feels very strange to 
use a case sensitive match for a hostname. 

Thanks for your time.
