voms local account plugin

SYNOPSIS

lcmaps_voms_localaccount.mod [-gridmapfile|-GRIDMAPFILE|-gridmap|-GRIDMAP <location gridmapfile>] [-use_voms_gid]

DESCRIPTION

This localaccount acquisition plugin is a 'VOMS-aware' modification of the 'localaccount' plugin. The plugin tries to find a local account (more specifically a UID) based on the VOMS information that has been retrieved by the plugin lcmaps_voms.mod from the user's grid credential. It will try to match a VO-GROUP-ROLE combination from the user's grid credential with an entry in a gridmapfile (most likely the traditional gridmapfile, used by the localaccount and poolaccount plugins) In this file VO-GROUP-ROLE combinations are listed next to the name of an existing account, as shown in the following example.

EXAMPLE:

"/VO=wilma/GROUP=management" wilmamgr

"/VO=fred/GROUP=*" fredmgr

If the first matching VO-GROUP-ROLE combination is "/VO=wilma/GROUP=management" the plugin will map the user to the account wilmamgr. If the first matching VO-GROUP-ROLE combination is "/VO=fred/GROUP=*" the plugin will map the user to the account fredmgr.

NOTE 1

This plugin should only be used in combination with the 'voms_localgroup' and/or 'voms_poolgroup' plugins.

OPTIONS

-GRIDMAPFILE \<gridmapfile\>

See -gridmap

-gridmapfile \<gridmapfile\>

See -gridmap

-GRIDMAP \<gridmapfile\>

See -gridmap

-gridmap \<gridmapfile\>

When this option is set it will override the default path to the gridmapfile. It is advised to use an absolute path to the gridmapfile to avoid usage of the wrong file(path).

-use_voms_gid

When this option is set the LCMAPS system relies on other VOMS plugins such as lcmaps_voms_localgroup.mod and voms poolgroup plugin "lcmaps_voms_poolgroup.mod" to assign a primary GID based on the VOMS attributes contained in the user proxy instead of taking the default primary GID that comes with the local account.
