[jira] Commented: (WHIRR-158) Allow users to log into clusters as
themselves
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WHIRR-158?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12970005#action_12970005 ]
Tom White commented on WHIRR-158:
---------------------------------
There are three steps to achieve this:
* Add the new user account on the instance
* Add the user's key to authorized keys
* Change /etc/sudoers to allow the launching user to run all commands with no password. Add the following line:
{noformat}
<user> ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
{noformat}
> Allow users to log into clusters as themselves

> Currently you have to log on to cloud instances with a particular user name (e.g. ec2-user on Amazon Linux, root on Ubuntu on rackspace). It would be nice if you could use the same user as the one that launched the cluster.
