Shalom Yan, Have you tried to execute, as dteam001 (su - dteam001) "qsub pbs_sub" where pbs_sub is an executable file reading: #!/bin/bash date It might be possible that you don't get the pbs_sub.o... and pbs_sub.e... files in the ~dteam001 directory. This means that the ssh host based authentication doesn't work between CE and WNs. Is the output of "pbsnodes -l" okay ? (It should be nothing, except for the case that some WNs are down or not seen by CE). To fix the ssh(d) host based authentication, the "pbsnodes -l" command, the PBS system in general, make sure that: 1) on CE a) file /etc/ssh/sshd_config has these two line: Subsystem sftp /usr/libexec/openssh/sftp-server HostbasedAuthentication yes b) file /etc/ssh/ssh_config contains these two lines: EnableSSHKeysign yes HostbasedAuthentication yes in the "Host *" section. c) file /etc/ssh/shosts.equiv contains the list of WNs, one per line. d) file /etc/hosts.equiv contains also the list of WNs, one per line. 2) on each WN a) file /etc/ssh/ssh_config has lines: EnableSSHKeysign yes HostbasedAuthentication yes in the "Host *" section. b) file /etc/ssh/sshd_config contains lines: Subsystem sftp /usr/libexec/openssh/sftp-server HostbasedAuthentication yes c) file /etc/ssh/shosts.equiv exist and contains the list of WNs, one per line. (in case you want to be able to submit a job from a WN, besides CE) Try it and let me know how it goes.
