GRID-PROXY-DESTROY(1) Globus Commands GRID-PROXY-DESTROY(1)NAME
grid-proxy-destroy - Destroy the default proxy certificate
SYNOPSIS
grid-proxy-destroy [-help] [-usage] [-version]
grid-proxy-destroy [-debug] [-dryrun] [-default] [-all] [--] [FILENAME...]
DESCRIPTION
The grid-proxy-destroy program removes X.509 proxy files from the local filesystem. It overwrites the data in the files and removes the
files from the filesystem. By default, it removes the current user's default proxy (either /tmp/x509up_uUID where UID is the current POSIX
user id, or the file pointed to by the X509_USER_PROXY environment variable) unless a list of proxy file paths are included as part of the
command line.
Use the -- command-line option to separate a list of proxy paths from command line options if the proxy file begins with the - character.
The full list of command-line options to grid-proxy-destroy are:
-help, -usage
Display the command-line options to grid-proxy-destroy.
-version
Display the version number of the grid-proxy-destroy command
-debug
Display verbose error messages.
-dryrun
Do not remove the proxy, but display the path of the files that would have been removed, or the directory where they would have been
removed from if the -all command-line option is used.
-default
Remove the default proxy in addition to the files included on the command-line. Only needed if other paths are included on the
command-line.
-all
Remove the default proxy and all delegated proxies in the temporary file directory.
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
The following environment variables affect the execution of grid-proxy-destroy:
X509_USER_PROXY
Path to the default user proxy.

GRID-DEFAULT-CA(8) Globus Commands GRID-DEFAULT-CA(8)NAME
grid-default-ca - Select default CA for certificate requests
SYNOPSIS
grid-default-ca [-help] [-h] [-usage] [-u] [-version] [-versions]
grid-default-ca -list [-dir CA-DIRECTORY]
grid-default-ca [-ca CA-HASH] [-dir CA-DIRECTORY]
DESCRIPTION
The grid-default-ca program sets the default certificate authority to use when the grid-cert-request script is run. The CA's certificate,
configuration, and signing policy must be installed in the trusted certificate directory to be able to request certificates from that CA.
Note that some CAs have different policies and use other tools to handle certificate requests. Please consult your CA's support staff if
you unsure. The grid-default-ca is designed to work with CAs implemented using the globus_simple_ca package.
By default, the grid-default-ca program displays a list of installed CA certificates and the prompts the user for which one to set as the
default. If invoked with the -list command-line option, grid-default-ca will print the list and not prompt nor set the default CA. If
invoked with the -ca option, it will not list or prompt, but set the default CA to the one with the hash that matches the CA-HASH argument
to that option. If grid-default-ca is used to set the default CA, the caller of this program must have write permissions to the trusted
certificate directory.
The grid-default-ca program sets the CA in the one of the grid security directories. It looks in the directory named by the
GRID_SECURITY_DIR environment, the X509_CERT_DIR, /etc/grid-security, and $GLOBUS_LOCATION/share/certificates.
The full set of command-line options to grid-default-ca are:
-help, -h, -usage, -u
Display the command-line options to grid-default-ca and exit.
-version, -versions
Display the version number of the grid-default-ca command. The second form includes more details.
-dir CA-DIRECTORY
Use the trusted certificate directory named by CA-DIRECTORY instead of the default.
-list
Instead of changing the default CA, print out a list of all available CA certificates in the trusted certificate directory
-ca CA-HASH
Set the default CA without displaying the list of choices or prompting. The CA file named by CA-HASH must exist.
EXAMPLES
List the contents of the trusted certificate directory that contain the string Example:
% grid-default-ca | grep Example
15) cd1186ff - /DC=org/DC=Example/DC=Grid/CN=Example CA
Choose that CA as the default:
% grid-default-ca -ca cd1186ff
setting the default CA to: /DC=org/DC=Example/DC=Grid/CN=Example CA
linking /etc/grid-security/certificates/grid-security.conf.cd1186ff to
/etc/grid-security/certificates/grid-security.conf
linking /etc/grid-security/certificates/grid-host-ssl.conf.cd1186ff to
/etc/grid-security/certificates/grid-host-ssl.conf
linking /etc/grid-security/certificates/grid-user-ssl.conf.cd1186ff to
/etc/grid-security/certificates/grid-user-ssl.conf
...done.
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
The following environment variables affect the execution of grid-default-ca:
GRID_SECURITY_DIRECTORY
Path to the default trusted certificate directory.
X509_CERT_DIR
Path to the default trusted certificate directory.
GLOBUS_LOCATION
Path to the Globus Toolkit installation directory.
BUGS
The grid-default-ca program displays CAs from all of the directories in its search list; however, grid-cert-request only uses the first
which contains a grid security configuration.
The grid-default-ca program may display the same CA multiple times if it is located in multiple directories in its search path. However, it
does not provide any information about which one would actually be used by the grid-cert-request command.
