[Condor-users] PASSWORD authentication problem

["Dr Ian C. Smith" <i.c.smith@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I'm trying to set up authentication using a pool
password but when I run the cred add command I get this

> C:\condor\log>condor_store_cred add -c
> Account: condor_pool@xxxxxxxxx
>
> Enter password:
>
> Operation failed.
>     Make sure you have CONFIG access to the target Master.


This is on a Win XP submit/execute host and I'm logged in under
the same account I used to install condor on it. The condor_master
does appear to be running on it OK.

Taking a look inside the MasterLog I can see

> 7/20 10:46:42 DaemonCore: PERMISSION DENIED to unknown user from host
> <138.253.1 03.161:4300> for command 497 (STORE_POOL_CRED)

I've a feeling of deja vu about this but I can't remember how to fix it.

any ideas ?

regards,

-ian.
