GCT¶
Description¶
Grid Community Toolkit is an attempt to provide community-based support for critical software packages for grid computing. The GCT is based on a fork of the Globus Toolkit but is not the Globus Toolkit. Major components in the GCT include: GSI: The Grid Security Infrastructure, an implementation of an authentication and authorization infrastructure based upon the concept of X509 proxy certificates. The GSI packages include client and server code necessary to create and verify proxies. GridFTP: An implementation of a client and server for the GridFTP protocol. MyProxy: A credential management service tailored for GSI.
