I'm setting up 4.2.0 toolkit installation to use gridftp along with
the myproxy service and I always get a "path length contraint

certificates it
holds versus a grid-proxy-init issued one (which works fine, btw).
Only the myproxy service gives me this trouble.
How many more certificates? That is, how many "BEGIN CERTIFICATE"
lines are
there in the proxy?
There are 4 total BEGIN CERTIFICATE lines in the myproxy proxy cert as
opposed to only 2 in the grid-proxy-init issued cert. I have just a
root- and second-level CAs if it makes any difference. This affects
all systems.
I don't see how that few would give you that problem. What does the
myproxy command output with -verbose? Can we see the exact text of
the error you're getting? Does it affect any of the other client tools?
The install was/is originally built from source but I also tried
suse-ia64 binary installer to no effect. These ia64 systems are
running RHEL4 update 4. I noticed earlier that ia64-to-ia64 transfers
commence but then quickly bog down and appear to hang (I can still
Ctrl-C out of it).
And what's running on the x86_64 side, in case it makes a difference?
