Description



glite-SCAS

This patch introduces the glite-SCAS (Site Central Authorization Service) metapackage for gLite 3.2.

SCAS is a Web Service that allows client programs to query for an authorization decision based upon user credentials to access a particular resource. For more information please check the service node page https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/EGEE/GliteSCAS. It's also interesting to check the following link about gLexec https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/EGEE/GLExec.

SCAS YAIM configuration

For a description of the YAIM variables needed to configure the SCAS server please visit:
