9 myproxy-admin-load-credential [ options ]
10
12 The myproxy-admin-load-credential command stores a credential directly
13 in the local MyProxy repository. It must be run from the account that
14 owns the repository. Many of the options are similar to myproxy-
15 init(1). However, unlike myproxy-init, myproxy-admin-load-credential
16 does not create a proxy from the source credential but instead directly
17 loads a copy of the source credential into the repository. The pass
18 phrase of the source credential is unchanged. Use myproxy-admin-
19 change-pass(8) to change the pass phrase after the credential is stored
20 if desired. Proxy credentials with default lifetime of 12 hours can
21 then be retrieved by myproxy-logon(1) using the MyProxy passphrase.
22 The command's behavior is controlled by the following options.
23
25 -h, --help
26 Displays command usage text and exits.
27 -u, --usage
29 Displays command usage text and exits.
30 -v, --verbose
32 Enables verbose debugging output to the terminal.
33 -V, --version
35 Displays version information and exits.
36 -s dir, --storage dir
38 Specifies the location of the credential storage directory. The
39 directory must be accessible only by the user running the
40 myproxy-server process for security reasons. Default:
41 /var/myproxy or $GLOBUS_LOCATION/var/myproxy
42 -c filename, --certfile filename
44 Specifies the filename of the source certificate. This is a
45 required parameter.
46 -y filename, --keyfile filename
48 Specifies the filename of the source private key. This is a
49 required parameter. If the private key is encrypted, MyProxy
50 clients will be required to give the encryption passphrase to
51 access the key. When used with -R or -Z, it is common for the
52 private key to not be encrypted, so MyProxy clients can access
53 the credentials using only certificate-based authentication and
54 authorization.
55 -l username, --username username
57 Specifies the MyProxy account under which the credential should
58 be stored. By default, the command uses the value of the LOG‐
59 NAME environment variable. Use this option to specify a differ‐
60 ent account username on the MyProxy server. The MyProxy user‐
61 name need not correspond to a real Unix username.
62 -t hours, --proxy_lifetime hours
64 Specifies the maximum lifetime of credentials retrieved from the
65 myproxy-server(8) using the stored credential. Default: 12
66 hours
67 -d, --dn_as_username
69 Use the certificate subject (DN) as the username.
70 -a, --allow_anonymous_retrievers
72 Allow credentials to be retrieved with just pass phrase authen‐
73 tication. By default, only entities with credentials that match
74 the myproxy-server.config(5) default retriever policy may
75 retrieve credentials. This option allows entities without
76 existing credentials to retrieve a credential using pass phrase
77 authentication by including "anonymous" in the set of allowed
78 retrievers. The myproxy-server.config(5) server-wide policy
79 must also allow "anonymous" clients for this option to have an
80 effect.
81 -A, --allow_anonymous_renewers
83 Allow credentials to be renewed by any client. Any client with
84 a valid credential with a subject name that matches the stored
85 credential may retrieve a new credential from the MyProxy repos‐
86 itory if this option is given. Since this effectively defeats
87 the purpose of proxy credential lifetimes, it is not recom‐
88 mended. It is included only for sake of completeness.
89 -r dn, --retrievable_by dn
91 Allow the specified entity to retrieve credentials. By default,
92 the argument will be matched against the common name (CN) of the
93 client (for example: "Jim Basney"). Specify -x before this
94 option to match against the full distinguished name (DN) (for
95 example: "/C=US/O=National Computational Science Alliance/CN=Jim
96 Basney") or a regular expression (for example: "*/CN=Jim Bas‐
97 ney|*/CN=James Basney").
98 -E dn, --retrieve_key dn
100 Allow the specified entity to retrieve end-entity credentials.
101 By default, the argument will be matched against the common name
102 (CN) of the client (for example: "Jim Basney"). Specify -x
103 before this option to match against the full distinguished name
104 (DN) (for example: "/C=US/O=National Computational Science
105 Alliance/CN=Jim Basney") or a regular expression (for example:
106 "*/CN=Jim Basney|*/CN=James Basney").
107 -R dn, --renewable_by dn
109 Allow the specified entity to renew credentials. By default,
110 the argument will be matched against the common name (CN) of the
111 client (for example: "condorg/modi4.ncsa.uiuc.edu"). Specify -x
112 before this option to match against the full distinguished name
113 (DN) (for example: "/C=US/O=National Computational Science
114 Alliance/CN=condorg/modi4.ncsa.uiuc.edu") or a regular expres‐
115 sion (for example:
116 "*/CN=server1.ncsa.uiuc.edu|*/CN=server2.ncsa.uiuc.edu").
117 -Z dn, --retrievable_by_cert dn
119 Allow the specified entity to retrieve credentials without a
120 passphrase. By default, the argument will be matched against
121 the common name (CN) of the client (for example: "Jim Basney").
122 Specify -x before this option to match against the full distin‐
123 guished name (DN) (for example: "/C=US/O=National Computational
124 Science Alliance/CN=Jim Basney") or a regular expression (for
125 example: "*/CN=Jim Basney|*/CN=James Basney").
126 -x, --regex_dn_match
128 Specifies that the DN used by options -r and -R will be matched
129 as a regular expression.
130 -X, --match_cn_only
132 Specifies that the DN used by options -r and -R will be matched
133 against the Common Name (CN) of the subject.
134 -k name, --credname name
136 Specifies the credential name.
137 -K description, --creddesc description
139 Specifies credential description.
