That's just how the default search order works for root. It's described in detail at http://www.globus.org/toolkit/docs/4.0/security/prewsaa/Pre_WS_AA_Public_Interfaces.html#prewsaa-env-credentials

Hi,

I'm using org.globus.replica.rls.RLSClient from rls.jar lib ( GT4.0.6) to acces RLS server. I use a proxy file to authenticate to the server. My question is why when running as root the client uses the host credentials instead of the proxy file specified ( I noticed this when I restricted server access using the acls from the server config file ) ? The same thing happens when using globus-rls-admin from CLI, if I create a proxy file for root user, globus-rls-admin still choose to use host credentials.

Thanks,
Silviu
