overview
This package provides 3 scripts that generate, query and destroy proxy
certificates. These are based on the globus grid-proxy tools, but they have
a lot less functionality. There is proxy module for performing
basic tasks with the proxy certificates. There is also an extension module
__mic which is used to generate and verify message integrity codes. These
are needed for Message Level Security.
dependencies
- M2Crypto 0.16 (the latest released version)
- Openssl-0.9.8 contains support for proxy certificates.
future work
The proxy_init script should be able to verify a certificate chain
that contains a proxy. The proxy_init script should also have a bits
argument, to specify the size of the key that is generated. Right now
it generates a 512 bit key.
