I have a need to allow a server which is outside of my cluster access to submit jobs to the cluster. I can do that easily enough by handing my Slurm RPMs, config, and munge key to the owner of that server and opening access in my firewall. However, since it is a system outside of my control the owner of it can become root (or impersonate any user they wish) and gain full control of Slurm. Obviously that's not good.

Are there any mechanisms for allowing a remote host to submit jobs but not have any administrative access to Slurm?
