MUNGE (MUNGE Uid 'N' Gid Emporium) is an authentication service for creating and
|
||
|
|
validating credentials. It is designed to be highly scalable for use in an HPC
|
||
|
|
cluster environment. It allows a process to authenticate the UID and GID of
|
||
|
|
another local or remote process within a group of hosts having common users and
|
||
|
|
groups. These hosts form a security realm that is defined by a shared
|
||
|
|
cryptographic key. Clients within this security realm can create and validate
|
||
|
|
credentials without the use of root privileges, reserved ports, or
|
||
|
|
platform-specific methods.
