Description From Laura Pearlman 2005-01-13 15:35:47

If there isn't already a default CA (that is, if the
globus-{user,host}-ssl.conf
symlinks don't exist), globus-default-ca will fail to set one (-ca and -list
will both say:

Can't find valid CA config files. Please make sure
that you have installed and setup a CA setup package.

This can be worked around by making the symlinks by hand, and once there is a
default CA, globus-default-ca can be used to switch to a new one.

Oops -- this is probably obvious, but I meant grid-default-ca, not
globus-default-ca.

Fixed in CVS.  The grid-default-ca doesn't fail if no default is set.
