NAME

       myproxy-server - store credentials in an online repository

SYNOPSIS

       myproxy-server [ options ]

DESCRIPTION

       The  myproxy-server  is  a  server that runs on a trusted, secure host and manages a database of security
       credentials for use from remote sites.  The myproxy-init(1) program stores  credentials  with  associated
       policies  that  specify credential lifetimes and who is authorized to retrieve credentials.  The myproxy-
       server.config(5) file sets server-wide policies that are used in conjunction with  the  policies  set  by
       myproxy-init(1) to control who is authorized to store and retrieve credentials.

OPTIONS

       -h, --help
              Displays command usage text and exits.

       -u, --usage
              Displays command usage text and exits.

       -v, --verbose
              Enables verbose debugging output to the terminal.

       -V, --version
              Displays version information and exits.

       -d, --debug
              Run  the  server  in debug mode.  In this mode, the server will run in the foreground, will accept
              one connection, write log messages to the terminal while processing the incoming request, and exit
              after completing one request.

       -l hostname/ipaddr, --listen hostname/ipaddr
              Specifies  the  hostname  or IP address that the myproxy-server should listen (bind) to.  Default:
              all interfaces on the localhost

       -p port, --port port
              Specifies the TCP port number that the myproxy-server should listen on.  Default: 7512

       -c file, --config file
              Specifies  the  location  of  the  myproxy-server  configuration  file.   Default:   /etc/myproxy-
              server.config or $GLOBUS_LOCATION/etc/myproxy-server.config

       -s dir, --storage dir
              Specifies the location of the credential storage directory.  The directory must be accessible only
              by the user running the myproxy-server process for security reasons.  Default: /var/lib/myproxy or
              /var/myproxy or $GLOBUS_LOCATION/var/myproxy

FILES

       /etc/myproxy-server.config
              Default  location  of the server configuration file (see myproxy-server.config(5)).  If not found,
              $GLOBUS_LOCATION/etc/myproxy-server.config will be used.  An alternate location can  be  specified
              by using the -c option.

       /var/lib/myproxy
              Default   location   of   the  credential  storage  directory.   If  not  found,  /var/myproxy  or
              $GLOBUS_LOCATION/var/myproxy will be used.  If none of these directories exist, the myproxy-server
              will  first  attempt  to  create  /var/lib/myproxy  and  if  that  fails  will  attempt  to create
              $GLOBUS_LOCATION/var/myproxy and use that.  The directory must be  accessible  only  by  the  user
              running  the  myproxy-server process for security reasons.  An alternate location can be specified
              by using the -s option.

ENVIRONMENT

       GLOBUS_LOCATION
              Specifies the root of the MyProxy installation, used to find the default location of the  myproxy-
              server.config file and the credential storage directory.

       LD_LIBRARY_PATH
              The  MyProxy  server is typically linked dynamically with Globus security libraries, which must be
              present in the dynamic linker's search path.  This typically requires $GLOBUS_LOCATION/lib  to  be
              included  in  the  list  in  the  LD_LIBRARY_PATH  environment  variable,  which  is  set  by  the
              $GLOBUS_LOCATION/libexec/globus-script-initializer  script,  which  should  be  called  from   any
              myproxy-server startup script.  Alternatively, to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH appropriately for the Globus
              libraries in an interactive shell, source $GLOBUS_LOCATION/etc/globus-user-env.sh (for sh  shells)
              or $GLOBUS_LOCATION/etc/globus-user.env.csh (for csh shells).

       MYPROXY_SERVER_PORT
              Specifies  the port where the myproxy-server(8) is running.  This environment variable can be used
              in place of the -p option.

       X509_USER_CERT
              Specifies an alternative location for the server's  certificate.   By  default,  the  server  uses
              /etc/grid-security/hostcert.pem  when  running  as  root or ~/.globus/usercert.pem when running as
              non-root.

       X509_USER_KEY
              Specifies an alternative location for the server's private  key.   By  default,  the  server  uses
              /etc/grid-security/hostkey.pem  when running as root or ~/.globus/userkey.pem when running as non-
              root.

       X509_USER_PROXY
              Specifies an alternative location for the server's certificate and private key (in the same file).
              Use  when  running  the  server  with  a  proxy  credential.   Note that the proxy will need to be
              periodically renewed before expiration to allow the myproxy-server to keep functioning.  When  the
              myproxy-server   runs  with  a  non-host  credential,  clients  must  have  the  MYPROXY_SERVER_DN
              environment variable set to the distinguished name of the certificate being used by the server.

       X509_CERT_DIR
              Specifies a non-standard location for the CA certificates directory.

       MYPROXY_KEYBITS
              Specifies the size for RSA keys generated by MyProxy.  By default, MyProxy generates 2048 bit  RSA
              keys.  Set this environment variable to "1024" for 1024 bit RSA keys.
