Hi Christos,
The grid-cert-request script needs the files globus-user-ssl.conf and
globus-host-ssl.conf and looks for them in /etc/grid-security
and ${GLOBUS_LOCATION}/etc/. These files are used as configuration files
when calling "openssl req -new ..." to create a certificate signing request.
I think they provide the default answers for the components of the
certificate DN, which are CA specific.
If a user wants to generate a certificate signing request, she/he should
follow the instructions of the CA, which is intended to sign it. These
intructions may require the user to download and install the
appropriate globus-user-ssl.conf and globus-host-ssl.conf files and then
run grid-cert-request. However this not necessarily so for every CA.
Cheers,
Preslav
