Options may be specified indifferently with either a "-" or "--" prefix. The options from -help to -out
are present for compatibility with grid-proxy-init, and have the exact same meaning. The meaning of the
other ones is the following.
-help Displays usage
-version Displays version
-debug Enables extra debug output
-q Quiet mode, minimal output
-verify Verifies certificate to make proxy for
-pwstdin Allows passphrase from stdin
-certcertfile Non-standard location of user certificate
-keykeyfile Non-standard location of user key
-certdircertdir Non standard location where the trusted CAs certificates are kept.
-outproxyfile Location of new proxy cert
-vomsvoms Specifies the VOMS server to contact using the nickname voms.
Example : voms-proxy-list --voms myVO
-conffile Read options from file.
-confilefile-userconffile-vomsesfile Specifies the name of a configuration file from which a list of nicknames is read. The
format of the file is the following: nickhostportsubjectvo Where nick is the nickname, host and port
are the hostname and port of the server to contact, subject is the subject of the server's certificate,
while vo is the name of the VO that owns the server. The default filenames are $PREFIX/etc/vomses and
$HOME/.glite/vomses.
Moreover, permissions must be 644 if a file is specified, and 755 if a directory is specified
The three options are synonyms. -confile and -userconf are deprecated. -vomses should be used instead.
-globusversion This option is obsolete and only present for backwards compatibility with old
installations. Currently, its value is ignored.
-noregen Use existing proxy to contact the server and to sing the new proxy.
-ignorewarn Ignore all warnings. They are not shown to the user.
-failonwarn Warnings become failures. The program will translates all warnings into errors and will react
accordingly, by returning a failure itself.
-list Instead of producing an attribute certificate, this optin will print on screen a list of all
attributes available to the user. This is a no-op
