Hi, I am looking to add galaxy to our local cluster. One of the conditions of use is that I have to ensure that any job submitted to the cluster can be traced back to an individual user. What is the easiest means to achieve this?

I assume that I have to force user logins (this can be done via the universe_wsgi.ini I think).

Yes, the config setting to force login in available in universe_wsgi.ini: # Force everyone to log in (disable anonymous access) require_login = True

However my local install running on a single machine does not appear to list user information in the paster.log file, just the ip address.

Every job is associated with a Galaxy Session via the job.galaxy_session mapper ( the job table includes a session_id column ), and every galaxy_session is associated with a user ( when forcing login ), via the galaxy_session.user mapper.

Any help much appreciated.
