Hi everyone, I am trying to install and set up a gridFTP server and client on Ubuntu 11.10, but I have run into a small problem when configuring the GSI security. Specifically generating the host certificate request. I think the main problem is that I don't know the exact location of the Globus installation directory.
Here are the steps I used to install GridFTP(from binary deb): sudo dpkg -i globus-repository-5.2-stable-oneiric_0.0.3_all.deb sudo apt-get update sudo taskel install globus-gridftp Then I tried to set up GSI security by doing the following: wget http://pki1.doegrids.org/Other/doegrids.tar tar xf doegrids.tar cd doegrids cp globus-host-ssl.conf.1c3f2ca8 /etc/grid-security/globus-host-ssl.conf cp globus-user-ssl.conf.1c3f2ca8 /etc/grid-security/globus-user-ssl.conf cp grid-security.conf.1c3f2ca8 /etc/grid-security/grid-security.conf export GLOBUS_LOCATION=/usr/share/globus ./grid-cert-request –host <fqdn of host> I used /usr/share/globus because it seemed to have most of the files that I think 'grid-cert-request' needed to run. However, when I run 'grid-cert-request..` the files are not found for example: ".: 15: Can't open /usr/share/libexec/globus-script-initializer" and "/usr/share/globus/libexec/globus-sh-tools.sh not found.") Short of creating directories and moving files around I don't know how to continue. Any help would be appreciated. Regards, Metin
