Thanks Chris
We'll be updating the CertWizard (which installs VOMS setup for many of the NES users for use by the myproxy uploader and voms-enabled GSI-SSHTERM) tomorrow and hope to have it released by Wednesday along with a message to our users that if they need to generate VOMS proxies then they should be using the gridpp voms server.
Cheers
JK
