Re: [HTCondor-users] Correct example of condor_store_cred use

Hi Marco,

I've been messing around with this, and something appears to have changed between V23 LTS and the most recent releases of HTCondor for the legacy condor_store_cred add command that results in an issue. I have not been able to make get the add-pwdoption work in any versions with the given flags. So, something is weird here and we will continue working on what is and supposed to be happening.

That being said you can store a password file with the following command:

# condor_store_cred -f $(condor_config_val SEC_PASSWORD_DIRECTORY)/filename -p $SOMETHING

Or (to replace the pool password file)

# condor_store_cred -f $(condor_config_val SEC_PASSWORD_FILE) -p $SOMETHING

Subject: [HTCondor-users] Correct example of condor_store_cred use

 

Good afternoon,
I'm using condor_store_cred to use a local password authentication and to create password files to create idtokens.
But sometimes I get errors that I cannot explain well
Are there exapmples on how to use it correctly.

condor_store_cred add -c -p "$SOMETHING"
gives an error in condor 24.10
condor_store_cred add-pwd -c -p "$SOMETHING"
seems to work. Is this the correct form to use with all condor versions?
If not, when was the syntax changed?

Thank you,
Marco
