VOMSES(5)

NAME
vomses - The VOMS server contact table

SYNOPSIS

/etc/vomses

~/.glite/vomses

DESCRIPTION

This manual page describes the format of vomses files. vomses files contain contact information for VOMS servers and are typically organized in the /etc/vomses directory. A vomses file is a simple text file which contains one or more lines formatted as follows:

"alias" "hostname" "port" "server DN" "vo_name"

Where:

alias: an alias that can be used for this VOMS server (this is typically identical to the vo_name)

hostname: the hostname where the VOMS server is running

vo_name: the name of the VO served by the VOMS server

port: the port where the VOMS server is listening for incoming requests

server DN: the certificate subject of the VOMS server

System wide VOMSES configuration is maintained in the /etc/vomses file or directory. If /etc/vomses is a directory, all the files contained in such directory are parsed looking for VOMS contact information.

A user can define its custom vomses configuration in the ~/.glite/vomses file or directory, which will be parsed in the same way as just described.

EXAMPLES

The following is an example of valid vomes file for the cms VO:

    "cms" "lcg-voms.cern.ch" "15002" "/DC=ch/DC=cern/OU=computers/CN=lcg-voms.cern.ch" "cms"
    "cms" "voms.cern.ch" "15002" "/DC=ch/DC=cern/OU=computers/CN=voms.cern.ch" "cms"
