[HTCondor-users] run all jobs as nobody?

[Dimitri Maziuk <dmaziuk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi everyone,

is there an easy way to tell a worker node to run all jobs as nobody?
Will putting something like
 FS (.*) nobody
in the mapfile do the trick?

I'm playing with condor in a docker container and am getting

from python. (That's with `python -s`, if there's a way around this
idiocy on python side, I'd love to hear about it.)
