Location of munge.key

[jht-prog]

It's not clear to me how to locate the munge.key in directory other than /etc/munge. Can the key in fact be moved or located based on a configuration option?

The munged --key-file command-line option can be used to specify the location of the key file at runtime. This option can be added to /etc/sysconfig/munge or /etc/default/munge (location dependent upon how the software was configured).

This key file must be owned by the same user ID that will run munged (typically user "munge") and its permissions should be set to 0600. Also, the directory in which the key file resides must be owned by that user and its permissions should be set to 0700.

See Securing the Installation for additional details.
