<span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">Hello,</span><br><br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">Unfortunately,
to allow bidirectional passwordless ssh between Linux/Windows (for sole
purpose of mm* commands), the literal username 'root' is a requirement.
Here are a few variations.</span><br><br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">1. Use domain
account 'root', where 'root' belongs to "Domain Admins" group.
This is the easiest 1-step and the recommended way.</span><br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">
or</span><br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">2. Use domain
account 'root', where 'root' does NOT belong to "Domain Admins"
group. In this case, on each and every GPFS Windows node, add this 'domain\root'
account to local "Administrators" group.</span><br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">
or</span><br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">3. On each
and every GPFS Windows node, create a local 'root' account as a member
of local "Administrators" group.</span><br><br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">(1) and (2) work
well reliably with Cygwin. I have seen inconsistent results with approach
(3) wherein Cygwin passwordless ssh in incoming direction (linux->windows)
sometimes breaks and prompts for password. Give it a try to see if you
get better results.</span><br><br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">If you cannot
get around the 'root' literal username requirement, the suggested alternative
is to use GPFS multi-clustering. Create a separate cluster of all Windows-only
nodes (using mmwinrsh/mmwinrcp instead of ssh/scp... so that 'root' requirement
is eliminated). And then remote mount from the Linux cluster (all non-Windows
nodes) via mmauth, mmremotecluster and mmremotefs et al.</span><br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">Regards, The Spectrum
