This is more useful with real error messages, but the basic idea is that DNS/reverse-DNS aren't setup correctly for your name/ip. The errors look like this:

globus_gsi_gssapi: Authorization denied: The name of the remote host (bacon.local), and the expected name for the remote host (10.0.1.4) do not match. This happens when the name in the host certificate does not match the information obtained from DNS and is often a DNS configuration problem.

The solution for that particular error (using my laptop's private name and IP) is to add this line to /etc/hosts:
10.0.1.4        bacon.local

Then everything works.

Hi, I've been trying to install globus toolkit 4.0.5 in my desktop computer. I have encountered a problem that I can’t solve. hopefully this mailing list can help me fix this problem.

When I tried the counter-client command. I receive an error that states expected "/CN=host/ip address" target but received "/O=Grid/ OU=GridTest/OU=SimpleCA-my address/CN=my address"

Is there any way I can debug this error?
