GLOBUS-UPDATE-CERT(8) GSI-C OpenSSL Commands GLOBUS-UPDATE-CERT(8)
NAME
globus-update-certificate-dir - Update symlinks in the trusted CA directory
SYNOPSIS
globus-update-certificate-dir [-help] [-d DIRECTORY]
DESCRIPTION
The globus-update-certificate-dir program creates symlinks between files (CA certificates, certificate revocation lists, signing policy,
and certificate request configuration files) using the certificate hash the installed version of OpenSSL uses. OpenSSL 1.0.0 uses a
different name hashing algorithm than previous versions, so CA distributions created with older versions of OpenSSL might not be able to
locate trusted CAs and related files. Running globus-update-certificate-dir against a trusted CA directory will add symlinks to the files
to the hash if needed.
The full set of command-line options to globus-update-certificate-dir consists of:
-help
Display a help message to standard output and exit
-d DIRECTORY
Create links in the trusted CA directory DIRECTORY instead of using the default search path.
