globus_gsi_proxy_create_signed (3)

Initiate a proxy operation.

This module contains the API functions for a user to request proxy request generation, proxy request inspection and proxy request signature.

globus_result_t globus_gsi_proxy_assemble_cred (\fBglobus_gsi_proxy_handle_t\fPhandle, globus_gsi_cred_handle_t *proxy_credential, BIO *input_bio)

Assemble credential. Assemble a proxy credential

This function assembles a proxy credential. It reads a signed proxy certificate and a associated certificate chain from the input_bio and combines them with a private key previously generated by a call to globus_gsi_proxy_create_req. The resulting credential is then returned through the proxy_credential parameter.

Parameters:

handle A GSI Proxy handle to use for the assemble operation.

proxy_credential This parameter will contain the assembled credential upon successful return.

input_bio A BIO to read a signed certificate and corresponding certificate chain from.

Returns:

GLOBUS_SUCCESS if no error occurred, an error object ID otherwise

globus_result_t globus_gsi_proxy_create_req (\fBglobus_gsi_proxy_handle_t\fPhandle, BIO *output_bio)

Create Request. Create a proxy credential request

This function creates a proxy credential request, an unsigned certificate and the corresponding private key, based on the handle that is passed in. The public part of the request is written to the BIO supplied in the output_bio parameter. After the request is written, the PROXYCERTINFO extension contained in the handle is written to the BIO. The proxy handle is updated with the private key.

Parameters:

handle A GSI Proxy handle to use for the request operation.

output_bio A BIO to write the resulting request structure to.

Returns:

GLOBUS_SUCCESS unless an error occurred, in which case, a globus error object ID is returned

globus_result_t globus_gsi_proxy_create_signed (\fBglobus_gsi_proxy_handle_t\fPhandle, globus_gsi_cred_handle_tissuer, globus_gsi_cred_handle_t *proxy_credential)

Create Signed. Create Signed Proxy Certificate

Parameters:

handle The proxy handle used to create and sign the proxy certificate

issuer The issuing credential, used for signing the proxy certificate

proxy_credential The new proxy credential, containing the signed cert, private key, etc.

Returns:

GLOBUS_SUCCESS if no error occurred, an error object ID otherwise

globus_result_t globus_gsi_proxy_inquire_req (\fBglobus_gsi_proxy_handle_t\fPhandle, BIO *input_bio)

Inquire Request. Inquire a proxy credential request

This function reads the public part of a proxy credential request from input_bio and if the request contains a ProxyCertInfo extension, updates the handle with the information contained in the extension.

Parameters:

handle A GSI Proxy handle to use for the inquire operation.

input_bio A BIO to read a request structure from.

Returns:

GLOBUS_SUCCESS unless an error occurred, in which case, a globus error object ID is returned

globus_result_t globus_gsi_proxy_resign_cert (\fBglobus_gsi_proxy_handle_t\fPhandle, globus_gsi_cred_handle_tissuer_credential, globus_gsi_cred_handle_tpeer_credential, globus_gsi_cred_handle_t *resigned_credential)

Resign Certificate. Resign a existing certificate into a proxy

This function use the public key in a existing certificate to create a new proxy certificate chained to the issuers credentials. This operation will add a ProxyCertInfo extension to the proxy certificate if values contained in the extension are specified in the handle.

Parameters:

handle A GSI Proxy handle to use for the signing operation.

issuer_credential The credential structure to be used for signing the proxy certificate.

peer_credential The credential structure that contains the certificate to be resigned.

resigned_credential A credential structure that upon return will contain the resigned certificate and associated certificate chain.

Returns:

GLOBUS_SUCCESS unless an error occurred, in which case, a globus error object ID is returned

globus_result_t globus_gsi_proxy_sign_req (\fBglobus_gsi_proxy_handle_t\fPhandle, globus_gsi_cred_handle_tissuer_credential, BIO *output_bio)

Sign Request. Sign a proxy certificate request

This function signs the public part of a proxy credential request, i.e. the unsigned certificate, previously read by globus_gsi_proxy_inquire_req using the supplied issuer_credential. This operation will add a ProxyCertInfo extension to the proxy certificate if values contained in the extension are specified in the handle. The resulting signed certificate is written to the output_bio.

Parameters:

handle A GSI Proxy handle to use for the signing operation.

issuer_credential The credential structure to be used for signing the proxy certificate.

output_bio A BIO to write the resulting certificate to.

Returns:

GLOBUS_SUCCESS unless an error occurred, in which case, a globus error object ID is returned
