Hi Derek, Having X11 would be helpful, but I don't think it would be required at this time -- at least for certificates. Using the command-line certificate management tool certmgr.py, you could import a certificate that you requested on another computer and exported to a file.
On OSX, you do have to source a file to setup your environment before running certmgr.py (and if you're running an osx venueserver, you might already know this): bash example: . /Applications/AccessGridToolkit.pp/Contents/Resources/setupenv.sh certmgr.py Eric Derek Piper wrote: > > Hi Ashnil, > > You can always do X11 forwarding via SSH or VNC.
