So who do the jobs run as? Who will own any files they create? How will
you keep track for audit purposes?

Subject: pool accounts on WNs
Hi all,
I was doing some experiments with pool accounts and Condor here and I
ended up seeing that jobs can run pretty well on a WN only with the home
directory space (e.g. /home/atlas001 etc.) without having the actual
pool account on the node i.e. in the end, I deleted the pool account,
keeping only the home directory, and jobs were still fine; at lest for
atlas jobs, we didn't see any problem.
Frederic (Brochu) I tried with couple of Atlas jobs and all of them
completed successfully. In fact, last couple of jobs from Steve Lloyd
finished that way too. (Steve, did you see any problem from your side?)
Dose anybody know any possible side effect(s) of doing this? Or any
other suggestions/warnings from anybody?
Cheers,
Santanu
