globus_fifo_t

globus_result_t globus_gsi_sysconfig_get_cert_dir_win32 (char ** cert_dir)
Win32 - Get Trusted CA Cert Dir. Get the Trusted Certificate Directory containing the
trusted Certificate Authority certificates. This directory is determined in the order
shown below. Failure in one method results in attempting the next.
1. X509_CERT_DIR environment variable - if this is set, the trusted certificates will be
searched for in that directory. This variable allows the end user to specify the
location of trusted certificates.
2. x509_cert_dir registry key - If this registry key is set on windows, the directory it
points to should contain the trusted certificates. The path to the registry key is
software\Globus\GSI
3. \<user home directory>\.globus\certificates - If this directory exists, and the
previous methods of determining the trusted certs directory failed, this directory
will be used.
4. Host Trusted Cert Dir - This location is intended to be independent of the globus
installation ($GLOBUS_LOCATION), and is generally only writeable by the host system
administrator.
5. Globus Install Trusted Cert Dir - this is $GLOBUS_LOCATION\share\certificates.
Parameters:
cert_dir The trusted certificates directory
Returns:
GLOBUS_SUCCESS if no error occurred, and a sufficient trusted certificates directory
was found. Otherwise, an error object identifier returned.
globus_result_t globus_gsi_sysconfig_get_current_working_dir_win32 (char ** working_dir)
Win32 - Get Current Working Directory. Get the current working directory on a windows
system
Parameters:
working_dir The working directory to get
Returns:
GLOBUS_SUCCESS if no error occurred, otherwise an error object ID is returned
globus_result_t globus_gsi_sysconfig_get_gaa_conf_filename_win32 (char ** filename)
Win32 - Get the path and file name of the gaa config file. Get the path and file name of
the gaa config configuration file .
Parameters:
filename Contains the location of the authorization callback configuration file upon
successful return
Returns:
GLOBUS_SUCCESS if no error occurred, otherwise an error object ID is returned
globus_result_t globus_gsi_sysconfig_get_gridmap_filename_win32 (char ** filename)
Win32 - Get the path and file name of the grid map file. Get the path and file name of the
grid map file.
Parameters:
filename Contains the location of the grid map file upon successful return
Returns:
GLOBUS_SUCCESS if no error occurred, otherwise an error object ID is returned
globus_result_t globus_gsi_sysconfig_get_host_cert_filename_win32 (char ** host_cert, char **
host_key)
Win32 - Get Host Certificate and Key Filenames. Get the Host Certificate and Key Filenames
based on the current user's environment. The host cert and key are searched for in the
following locations (in order):
1. X509_USER_CERT and X509_USER_KEY environment variables
2. registry keys x509_user_cert and x509_user_key in software\Globus\GSI
3. <GLOBUS_LOCATION>\etc\host[cert|key].pem
4. <users home directory>\.globus\host[cert|key].pem
Parameters:
host_cert pointer to the host certificate filename
host_key pointer to the host key filename
Returns:
GLOBUS_SUCCESS if the host cert and key were found, otherwise an error object
identifier is returned
globus_result_t globus_gsi_sysconfig_get_proxy_filename_win32 (char ** user_proxy,
globus_gsi_proxy_file_type_t proxy_file_type)
Win32 - Get Proxy Filename. Get the proxy cert filename based on the following search
order:
1. X509_USER_PROXY environment variable - This environment variable is set by the at run
time for the specific application. If the proxy_file_type variable is set to
GLOBUS_PROXY_OUTPUT (a proxy filename for writing is requested), and the
X509_USER_PROXY is set, this will be the resulting value of the user_proxy filename
string passed in. If the proxy_file_type is set to GLOBUS_PROXY_INPUT and
X509_USER_PROXY is set, but the file it points to does not exist, or has some other
readability issues, the function will continue checking using the other methods
available.
2. check the registry key: x509_user_proxy. Just as with the environment variable, if the
registry key is set, and proxy_file_type is GLOBUS_PROXY_OUTPUT, the string set to be
the proxy filename will be this registry key's value. If proxy_file_type is
GLOBUS_PROXY_INPUT, and the file doesn't exist, the function will check the next
method for the proxy's filename.
3. Check the default location for the proxy file. The default location should be set to
reside in the temp directory on that host, with the filename taking the format:
x509_u<user id> where <user id> is some unique string for that user on the host
Parameters:
user_proxy the proxy filename of the user
proxy_file_type Switch for determining whether to return a existing proxy filename or
if a filename suitable for creating a proxy should be returned
Returns:
GLOBUS_SUCCESS or an error object identifier
globus_result_t globus_gsi_sysconfig_get_service_cert_filename_win32 (char * service_name,
char ** service_cert, char ** service_key)
Win32 - Get Service Certificate and Key Filenames. Get the Service Certificate Filename
based on the current user's environment. The host cert and key are searched for in the
following locations (in order):
1. X509_USER_CERT and X509_USER_KEY environment variables
2. registry keys x509_user_cert and x509_user_key in software\Globus\GSI
3. GLOBUS_LOCATION\etc\{service_name}\{service_name}[cert|key].pem So for example, if my
service was named: myservice, the location of the certificate would be:
<GLOBUS_LOCATION>\etc\myservice\myservicecert.pem
4. <users home>\.globus\{service_name}\{service_name}[cert|key].pem
Parameters:
service_name The name of the service which allows us to determine the locations of
cert and key files to look for
service_cert pointer to the host certificate filename
service_key pointer to the host key filename
Returns:
GLOBUS_SUCCESS if the service cert and key were found, otherwise an error object
identifier
