</sidebar>Globus has a convention for storing and retrieving the user's key and certificate. On unix and related systems, this is a directory ~/.globus . This page discusses the files that can be present.
- userkey.pem - the user's private key in PEM format
- usercert.pem - the user's public certificate in PEM format
- cog.properties - security properties used by Globus CoG, allows customising the others (!) CogProperties /(JavaDoc)
- certificates/ - CA certificates to replace system's location when present (also in CogProperties). This directory contains files named by the hash code of each CA identity (can be obtained by running openssl x509 -in yourcert.pem -noout -hash on the CA certificate [1])
- <hash>.0 - CA certificate
- <hash>.info - CA metadata [2]
- <hash>.namespaces - signing policy namespace [3]
- <hash>.signing_policy - GSI signing policy. The CA signing policy is used to place constraints on the information you trust a given CA to bind to public keys. Specifically it constrains the identities a CA is trusted to assert in a certificate.
- <hash>.crl_url - URL of the corresponding certificate revocation list
- <hash>.r0 - copy of the certificate revocation list
Grix additionally uses the following files:
- usercert_request.pem - the original certificate signing request for the certificate
- usercert.p12 - PKCS#12 file containing key and certificate
- (userkey|usercert_request|usercert).pem.new - key/csr/cert for pending renewal
The Java CoG Kit Desktop additionally has the following files:
- cogreq.txt - CoG registration information
- desktop.properties - settings (Java properties file)
jGridstart and/or the DutchGrid CA use the following in their scripts
- userrequest.pem - the original certificate signing request for the certificate
- userinfo.properties - jGridstart settings (Java properties file)
