OK, I realize that I had misread the status, and also that the BDII on that CREAM CE had been stopped by YAIM but apparently not restarted.

I think strictly speaking that's true, but I am trying to sort our some 'gsissh' issue on it. What I have observed so far is somewhat baffling:

  * If I have '/etc/grid-security/hostcert.pem' then GSS auth
    seems to be available, otherwise it is not.

  * But with that cert I get this error message in the *server*
    logs:

This seems to hint that the DN for the *host* cert (for that is it) is used to auth instead of that for my proxy cert.

This is baffling as the GSISSH manual:

chapter 6 briefly says that indeed is expected to be the user certificate.
