Depending on whether you use tcsh or bash as your shell, you can set your environment as follows

Shell	File to add to	Line to add
tcsh	~/.tcshrc	source /home/ert/tcshrc_ert_paths
bash	~/.bash_login	. /home/ert/bashrc_ert_paths

Modules

Paths to locally-installed pacakges are managed via Environment Modules.

Enable passwordless logins

The queuing system assumes you have passwordless logins to copy log files across from worker nodes.

Enable passwordless logins by the following commands:

cd ~/.ssh
ssh-keygen -t rsa
<ret>
<ret>
<ret>
cp id_rsa.pub authorized_keys

(<ret> just means press return)

Test:

ssh worker002

(It should log you in w/o asking for a password)
