Brian, We have a number of government clients that have to seek a waiver for each and every Spectrum Scale installation because of the root password-less ssh requirements. The sudo wrappers help but not really. My clients would all like to see the ssh requirement go away and also need to comply with Nessus scans. Different agencies may have custom scan profiles but even passing the standard ones is a good step. I have been discussing this internal with the development team for years. Thanks, Steve Steven A.

Chances are your answer is somewhere between "Yes" and "Definitely, yes, yes, yes!" If so, the Scale Research team would love to sit down with you to better understand the problems you're trying to solve with non-root access and possibly work with you over the coming months to design concepts and prototypes of different solutions. Just reply back and we'll work with you to schedule a time to chat. If you have any other comments, questions, or concerns feel free to let us know. Look forward to talking with you soon Brian Burnette IBM Systems - Spectrum Scale and Discover E-mail: brianbur at us.ibm.com _______________________________________________ gpfsug-discuss mailing list gpfsug-discuss at spectrumscale.org https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__gpfsug.org_mailman_listinfo_gpfsug-2Ddiscuss&d=DwICAg&c=jf_iaSHvJObTbx-siA1ZOg&r=6mf8yZ-lDnfsy3mVONFq1RV1ypXT67SthQnq3D6Ym4Q&m=deWOF7sVb3e9mZabqIi0axMgkZE1FEs99isaMTZQcmw&s=axVOZPNouq3IgCatiR49oOZ0bw5OR0JaECiJuxHzQl0&e= -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
