Rike,
Assuming the data, scripts and other dependencies are already on the cluster, you could just ssh and execute the sbatch command in a single shot: ssh submitnode sbatch some_script.sh
It will ask for a password if appropriate and could use ssh keys to bypass that need.

Hi,
If I understand it correctly, the MUNGE and SACK authentication modules naturally require that no-one can get access to the key. This means that we should not use our normal workstations to which our users have physical access to run any jobs, nor could our users use the workstations to submit jobs to the compute nodes. They would have to ssh to a specific submit node and only then could they schedule their jobs.
Is there an elegant way to enable job submission from any computer (possibly requiring that users type their password for the submit node – or to their ssh key – at some point)? (All computers/users use the same LDAP server for logins.)
