Dear Globus Users,

I just installed a brandnew Globus Toolkit 4.2.1 and I wonder, if I can use
some PEPs and PIPs to decide the following:

Working with Grid user certificates and a server certificate I want to map all
user certificates to a certain Unix user (from the grid-mapfile), that are
either signed by the above mentioned server certificate, or maybe have instead
some additional SAML attributes in the user certificate.

We are using a CreateReadUpdateDelete service in the TextGrid project to write
to the Grid, and want to allow this service to write to the Grid only if users
address that service, that are owning a Grid certificate (because our resource
providers want to know exactly, who accesses the Grid). So we want to write as
the service Grid user (to access the services' directory), if the user's
certificate is signed by the services' certificate and to write as the user
(to access the user's home directory), if not.

Has someone experience with those issues or does someone know, how to
configure the PEPs and PIPs? I couldn't find much information concerning those
issues.

Thank you for any help.
All the best.
Stefan.
