πŸ’– VOMS-PROXY-LIST πŸ’–

okay bestie, welcome to voms-proxy-list(1), brought to you by the VOMS Client girlies. this is the lil tool that spills the tea on every attribute a proxy server has to offer. let's get into it 🫢


✨ NAME ✨

voms-proxy-list β€” shows a list of all available attributes from a specified server. literally its whole job, no cap.


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

voms-proxy-list [options]

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so like, voms-proxy-list prints on screen a list of all available attributes from a specified proxy server. that's the vibe. it just shows you the goods ✨


πŸ’… OPTIONS πŸ’…

first things first, queen: options may be specified indifferently with either a - or -- prefix. same energy either way, pick your fave πŸ’–

the options from -help to -out are present for compatibility with grid-proxy-init, and have the exact same meaning. the meaning of the other ones is the following:

  • -help β€” displays usage. your lil "how do i work this" button πŸŽ€
  • -version β€” displays version. so you know which era of slay you're running.
  • -debug β€” enables extra debug output. for when you need the director's commentary πŸ’€
  • -q β€” quiet mode, minimal output. shhh era 🀫
  • -verify β€” verifies certificate to make proxy for.
  • -pwstdin β€” allows passphrase from stdin. feed it through the pipe, bestie πŸ“
  • -cert certfile β€” non-standard location of user certificate.
  • -key keyfile β€” non-standard location of user key.
  • -certdir certdir β€” non standard location where the trusted CAs certificates are kept.
  • -out proxyfile β€” location of new proxy cert.
  • -voms voms β€” specifies the VOMS server to contact using the nickname voms.

example: voms-proxy-list --voms myVO

  • -conf file β€” read options from file.
  • -confile file β€” (synonym, deprecated, see below πŸ‘‡)
  • -userconf file β€” (synonym, deprecated, see below πŸ‘‡)
  • -vomses file β€” specifies the name of a configuration file from which a list of nicknames is read. the format of the file is the following: nick host port subject vo

where nick is the nickname, host and port are the hostname and port of the server to contact, subject is the subject of the server's certificate, while vo is the name of the VO that owns the server.

the default filenames are $PREFIX/etc/vomses and $HOME/.glite/vomses.

moreover, permissions must be 644 if a file is specified, and 755 if a directory is specified.

πŸ‘‘ the three options are synonyms. -confile and -userconf are deprecated. -vomses should be used instead.
  • -globus version β€” this option is obsolete and only present for backwards compatibility with old installations. currently, its value is ignored. it's giving legacy, not giving useful πŸ™ˆ
  • -noregen β€” use existing proxy to contact the server and to sing the new proxy. (yes, "sing" β€” the original said it, so we keep it, iconic typo and all 🎀)
  • -ignorewarn β€” ignore all warnings. they are not shown to the user.
  • -failonwarn β€” warnings become failures. the program will translates all warnings into errors and will react accordingly, by returning a failure itself. (again: "translates" is theirs, we're just holding it gently πŸ’€)
  • -list β€” instead of producing an attribute certificate, this optin will print on screen a list of all attributes available to the user. this is a no-op. (and yes, "optin" is also straight from the source β€” the typos are part of the family at this point 😭)
