Re: [HTCondor-users] Run HTCondor-CE as normal user

[Kamrul Shaker <Kamrul.Shaker@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello

I would like to know if it's possible to run HTCondor-CE as normal user.

Setup should be like this, Condor-CE should be in the user home directory and would run condor-ce daemons as normal user but not as root or condor.

How can I make this work?

Please let me know.

Best Regards,

Kamrul Shaker
