Hi Yannick,

I think the DPM guys specifically prohibit direct access to an end node. 
You need to authenticate at the head node. That's how DPM is architected. 
Again, David Smith may have an alternative for you. But this is DPM 
doing it by design. Standard XRootD servers always authenticate at the end 
node not the head node (though one could configure it in DPM-like way but 
almost no one does).
