>The devstack script sets them for you if you source openrc. >https://github.com/openstack-dev/devstack/blob/master/openrc#L55 Devstack is automated setup of OpenStack with many specifics. (For the record: I have tried "devstack" on Ubuntu, but fails for me for other reasons) Let's back to OpenStack: The official OpenStack docs do not rely on "devstack", else they become "devstack" docs. (if they use devstack specifics, they lose the generic approach of standard OpenStack install) I have looked at OpenRC, but I can't find step-by-step guide on how-to configure authentication / credentials, or how-to test credentials for that matter. > There's a PDF icon on this page: > http://docs.openstack.org/trunk/openstack-compute/admin/content/ OK, I see the PDF icon for Essex. -- -Alexey Eromenko "Technologov"
