These files should be moved to the proper location and the key file protected carefully since, as a service certificate key, it is not encrypted or password protected. Side effects: Generates some temporary files that are removed automatically under normal circumstances. To use the gridadmin interface you must have your personal certificate pre-authorized with the CA. If you are unsure if this was done you should check with your Registration Authority. A list of RAs are shown at www.doegrids.org. It is recommended that you verify that the certificate subject names you are requesting are not already issued to someone else. You can do this with the cert-lookup script, or via a search for certificates at the www.doegrids.org web site. This software is contributed to the DOEGrids PKI and is supported by the PPDG RA.
