Dear All
We are doing a small experiment in basic level interoperability between glite
and globus. We are using vmware virtual machine and glite training tool
gridseed. In Gridseed we can initiate all the components of glite and there is
CA in the setup which provides Host Certificate and User Certificate and also
creates signing policy files etc.
I installed gt4.0.0 on a different virtual machine and integrated it with
gridseed and got the certificate from gridseed and ran grid-proxy-init -debug
-verify and proxy was created without any error.
Then I installed gt4.2.0 on a different virtual machine and repeat the same
procedure but this time I got this error when I ran grid-proxy-init -debug
-verfify
ERROR: could not verify the authenticity of the user credential to generate a
proxy from grid-ptoxy-init.c:1013: globus_credential: Error verifying
credential: Failed to verify the credential.
globus_gsi_callback_module: could not verify credential
globus_gsi_callback_module: error with signing policy
globus_gsi_callback_module: error in OLD GAA code: Could not get policy info:
minor status=201
I also ran these test to check the validity of certificate and the result was OK
openssl verify -CApath /etc/grid-security/certificates
-purpose sslclient ~/.globus/usercert.pem
openssl verify -CApath /etc/grid-security/certificates -purpose sslserver
/etc/grid-security/hostcert.pem
I wanted to know that, what is the difference between gt4.0.0 and gt4.2.0
grid-proxy-init command, As I found that gt4.0.0 is using
globus_proxy_utils_0.14 and gt4.2.0 is using globus_proxy_utils_2.1. Is it due
to this or gt4.2.0 is using some extra fields.
Can someone explain the difference as I could not get any material on net
regarding it.
Thanks
