[HTCondor-users] security defaults

[Pek Daniel <pekdaniel@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I'd like to know the default values for all the ALLOW_*, DENY_*,
HOSTALLOW_* and HOSTDENY_* macros (I'm using 8.1.6).

When I don't set any of these macros explicitly, condor_config_val
-dump | grep ALLOW tells me nothing relevant, so everything should be
denied, but in fact it's not.

My guess would be that the authorization defaults are controlled by
"use SECURITY : FOO" default configuration sets, but I couldn't find
the exact specification of these configuration sets. And if this is
the case, why these configuration sets don't set up the corresponding
ALLOW_* and DENY_* macros properly queriable by condor_config_val (or
do I query them in the wrong way?)?

I'd like to understand exactly what's happening inside HTCondor
security-wise, as security is crucial in our application.

Thanks,
Daniel
