The Globus Toolkit contains three different formats of the proxy certificate • 1. Globus “legacy” proxy available prior to GT v2.* • 2. Globus proxy (non rfc-compliant) available in GT v2.* and later releases • 3. RFC-compliant proxy available in GT v4.* http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc3820.html Pre-GT2.* servers require the Globus legact proxy. Servers in GT2.* and beyond work only with the non-rfc-compliant proxy. Servers in GTv4 work with both, rfc-compliant and non-compliant proxies.
