Getting a CCL Globus CertificateThe CCL uses the Globus software to create and manage certificates. You can perform this procedure on any standard CSE workstation with AFS.To begin, set up your environment and path as follows: setenv GLOBUS_LOCATION /afs/crc.nd.edu/group/ccl/software/external/globus setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH ${GLOBUS_LOCATION}/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH setenv PATH ${GLOBUS_LOCATION}/bin:$PATHNext, use the grid-cert-request program to generate a certificate for the CCL to sign: % grid-cert-requestThis program will prompt you for a new password. Note that this new password will be used to encrypt your certificate. It is completely separate from your ordinary Unix password. Next, you will have to mail your newly-generated certificate to the CCL. Mail the following file to ccl@cse.nd.edu ~/.globus/usercert_request.pemWe may contact you by other means in order to verify that you are who you claim to be. When your key is signed, it will be returned to you by email, and you must save it in the following file: ~/.globus/usercert.pemOnce you have done that, you are ready to use your credentials.
