For site-specific customized external authentication. Provides the highest level of security of all LSF authentication methods.
For authentication using the RFC 931/1413/1414 protocol to verify the identity of the remote client. If you want to use ident authentication, you must download and install the ident protocol, available from the public domain, and register ident as required by your operating system.
During LSF installation, a default eauth executable is installed in the directory specified by the parameter LSF_SERVERDIR in the lsf.conf file. The default executable provides an example of how the eauth protocol works. You should write your own eauth executable to meet the security requirements of your cluster.
