vomses - Man Page
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"
