Has anyone tried this > kind of thing and lived to tell the tale? Hello, Stephen! I've been trying to set this thing up for a long time, still unsuccessfully, yet cannot stop. As far as I can see the reasons for our failures were so far 99% of firewall blocks issues: our uni's firewall policy blocks outgoing traffic. We're still "fighting" the firewall guys. To the condor point: I assume you have (plan to have) a 2.6 site. do refer to http://www.cs.technion.ac.il/Labs/DSL/projects/EGEE/files/lcg_condor.pdf I created 'good' files, and then overwrote them with a script. Please see if you see any inconsistencies in the document - it is the first draft. Most of the valuable data in it is the knowledge & expertise of BUDAPEST Hungarian site manageer, Mr. Hernath Szabolcs. I will somehow transfer this information into LCG web space as soon as my site is up and running ( i.e. the filrewall issues are closed. ) We can with no problem submit into a condor pool with LCG2 middleware and credentials, but unfortunately, if the jobs were submitted externally via RB, our system could not notify the submitter about anything back since the outbound connectivity to the RB on e.g. port 7772 was blocked by the university firewall policy, because this is a common IRC port.
