Hi,
 
I am looking for any sort of Cookbook for VOMS protecting GT4 services like the 
one by "Borja Sotomayor & Lisa Childers. GlobusĀ® Toolkit 4: Programming Java 
Services."
 
Although the earlier links sent by Tom were relevant, but I am interested 
following VOMS on the pattern of the above Cookbook written by Borja.
 
Thanks in advance for help.
 
Regards
 
-Jan Muhammad

The primary VOMS use case is depicted here:

http://www.globus.org/grid_software/security/voms.php

In the figure, the blue cloud represents a Globus service protected
with the VOMS interceptors for GT4:

Recently, VOMS has implemented a SAML interface:

So there is interest in a generic attribute-based security context in GT4:

http://dev.globus.org/wiki/GridShib_Security_Table

At that point, the source of attributes (VOMS, Shibboleth, GridShib,
etc.) wouldn't matter.

Hope this helps,
Tom
