What "globus server" are we talking about here?
It's possible that the server is setup using a different environment
than you're using. How is the server being started? Is X509_CERT_DIR
being set? Do you have a ~/.globus/cog.properties file? Are the
contents of /etc/grid-security/certificates different on the
machines? Do you have a ~/.globus/certificates directory on either
machine?
The fundamentals of how the CA certs are found is at

There is some troubleshooting help at

Hello list,
I've got a little problem with my certificates. While trying to send
a request to a globus server, I got this error message:
Error: cannot connect to host "ingrid". Reason:
; nested exception is:
org.globus.common.ChainedIOException: Authentication failed
[Caused by: Failure unspecified at GSS-API level [Caused by: Unknown
CA]]
But.. What is the reason? I made a valid grid-proxy-init -debug -
verify... well done! Same at the server... Credentials OK!
Afterwards I sent a text file via globus-url-copy
globus-url-copy file:/home/fabian/malschauen.txt
gsiftp://ingrid/export/fabian/bliblablubbdiblubb.txt
.. works!
Then I made a md5sum on each file in /etc/grid-security/
certificates/. Looks like the server's files and the files on my
local machine are exactly the same. The grid-mapfile is also OK.
A few weeks ago it still worked... :-|
Hoping for helpful hints!!
Thanks! :-)
Fabian
