Summary : An authentication service for creating and validating credentials
Description :
MUNGE (MUNGE Uid 'N' Gid Emporium) is an authentication service for
creating and validating user credentials. It is designed to be highly
scalable for use in an HPC cluster environment. It provides a portable
API for encoding the user's identity into a tamper-proof credential
that can be obtained by an untrusted client and forwarded by untrusted
intermediaries within a security realm. Clients within this realm can
create and validate credentials without the use of root privileges,
reserved ports, or platform-specific methods.
