I am installing gt4.0.5. I am setting the simpleCA.I am at a stage where i am 
supposed to do the following:

-------------
Now I need to get that certificate request to the globus user so it can be 
signed, then send the signed cert back to bacon: 

choate % cat /home/bacon/.globus/usercert_request.pem | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
-------------

Firstly I wanted to know that what does this command mean?? Also after " | " it 
says "mail globus @choate" . Now what mail or id is this. Is this some email id 
or what ?? And what would this command do ?? To run this , what id would i need 
to give ??
Does this id thing  have any real significance ??

After this it says:

----------------------------------

Now, sign it as user globus: 

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ grid-ca-sign -in request.pem -out signed.pem

To sign the request
please enter the password for the CA key: ******
-----------------

When i run this command i get an error wich says : 
ERROR : File request.pem is not readable

Next i wanted to know that is the file "request.pem " automatically generated ??
Because in my case this file is not getting generated of its own. I gess that 
is why it is saying not readable.
If it is not automatically generated then what am i supposed to do??
If it is generated of its own then what can i possibly be doing wrong that it 
is not doing so ??
