Hi,
- The gLite CREAM CE can be accessed either with pure TLS (X509 certificate) or using GSI (proxy-based) authentication. I think that the same holds for other gLite components as well.
So your service can work w/o proxies? Maybe for the initial AuthN yes - but for further use I guess you require a proxy for forwarding to CREAM or so?! In other words, if someone access your service with a proxy he is authenticated but can't work with the service since its requiring proxies?! Then, if not presented at TLS level, where do you get the proxy from?

Q: Do gLite also supports pure PGI_TLS apart from PGI_GSI?
