[Condor-users] need info on SSL authentication

["Smith, Ian" <I.C.Smith@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I've tried trawling the condor manual, the mail archive and
google but I can't seem to find anything on SSL authentication
with Condor. Are there any docs anywhere anyone can point me
to ? Or can anyone elaborate on any of the directives:

AUTH_SSL_SERVER_CAFILE=

erm - is this is root CA cert file ??

AUTH_SSL_SERVER_CADIR=

like /etc/grid-security/certificates in GSI ???  Does it
need a signing policy

AUTH_SSL_SERVER_CERTFILE=
AUTH_SSL_SERVER_KEYFILE=

Presumably a host cert (and corresponding) key signed by
the CA. Is this an non-password protected cert like
GSI host/service certs.

AUTH_SSL_CLIENT=
AUTH_SSL_CLIENT=
AUTH_SSL_CLIENT=
AUTH_SSL_CLIENT=

no idea what these are.

any help would be extremely useful !

cheers,

-ian.
