Re: [HTCondor-users] Remote Submit Scheds with grid submission to CondorCE

[Thomas Hartmann <thomas.hartmann@xxxxxxx>]

Hi Maarten,

maybe I am overthinking it, but AFAIS the problem is the remote submit 
needing to forward the proxy

The user servers are as remote submitters not running a local schedd but 
only forward the jobs to the actual schedulers. I am not sure, if the 
X509s are forwarded, or?

Cheers,
  Thomas
