Re: How to set ssh password on nodes?

If you see that, it probably means that the compute nodes have not successfully NFS mounted the /home/user directory, which is exported from the frontend. In principle, the password for the nodes is the same as the password for the frontend, but for this to work, the nodes need to have mounted the NFS home dir. If that fails, then the password should be "live", I think.

The main question is why the compute nodes are not successfully importing the home dir. Are you using a ramdisk (default) for the home dir, or are you trying to use a virtual hard disk?
