how to run PBS (portable batch system) with multiple user environment?

Question

Recently I finished configuration a PBS for my institute. It can run very well with a user, pbs. However, it can not be run with different user, for example, jhsong. It gives the following message:

echo "sleep 1" | qsub
socket_connect_unix failed: 15137
qsub: cannot connect to server (null) (errno=15137) could not connect to trqauthd

I think PBS should work at multiple user environment. But, I don't know how to configure. Can I solve this problem?
