NAME
       findproxyfile - returns full path to GSI Proxy file

SYNOPSIS
       findproxyfile [--proxycache=PATH] [--delegation-id=ID] [--user-dn=DN] [--outsidecache]

DESCRIPTION
       findproxyfile  returns  full path to a GSI Proxy file, either in the proxy cache maintained by the GridSite G-HTTPS and delegation portType
       functions, or in other standard places.

       If a User DN is given findproxyfile uses the value of the --proxycache argument, the GRST_PROXY_PATH or the compile time default to  detem-
       ine  the  location  of the proxy cache directory.  The directory is searched for a proxy having the given User DN and Delegation ID. (If no
       Delegation ID is specificed, then the default value is used.)

       If findproxyfile does not find a proxy or if a User DN  is  not	given,	but  --outsidecache  was  given,  then	the  environment  variable
       X509_USER_PROXY and the standard location /tmp/x509up_uUID are searched as well.

OPTIONS
       --proxycache=PATH
	      Give  the  path  of  the	proxy  cache  directory explicitly, overriding the default and the GRST_PROXY_PATH environment variable if
	      present.

       --delegation-id=ID
	      The optional delegation ID is search for in the proxy cache in addition to the User DN. If absent, the default Delegation  ID  value
	      is searched for.

       --user-dn=DN
	      The  DN  of  the	full  user certificate associated with the proxy to be searched for in the proxy cache. (This is not the DN of any
	      proxy earlier in the chain: it is a the DN of a certificate issued by a recognised CA.)

       --outsidecache
	      If a User DN is not given, or a proxy not found in the cache, then search for a proxy using X509_USER_PROXY environment variable and
	      file name of form /tmp/x509up_uUID as well.

RETURN VALUE
       If a proxy is found, its full path is output on standard out.

EXIT CODES
       0 is returned on succcess. Non-zero otherwise.

BUGS
       In this version, no attempt is made to verify or validate the proxies.
