Hi,

I'm using Openca to deploy a Certification Authority to issue personal
and server certificates to the crossgrid and datagrid projects.

The problem that Michael report, are the only "bug", till now, that i
see, that not permit to issue certificates to this projects, because
they want things like this "service/www.exemple.org" in DN
(ftp/www.exemple.org, for example).

Now (after Michael fixe the problem, i haven't tested), i think that
openca can issue certificates to use in globus.
