Client Options

The options that are common to all clients are 
 [-debug -help -v -c cas-url -s server-identity]

where:

-c cas-url Sets the CAS Service instance, where cas-url is the URL of the CAS service instance.

Optionally, an environment variable CAS_SERVER_URL may be set to point to the URL. The -c flag takes precedence between the two.

The instance URL typically looks like 

  http://GT3Host:GT3Port/ogsa/services/base/cas/CASService
where GT3Host and GT3Port are host and port where container with CAS service is running.

-s server-identity Sets the expected CAS server identity, where server-identity is the identity of the CAS service.

Optionally, an environment variable CAS_SERVER_IDENTITY may be set to point to the expected server identity. The -s flag takes precedence.

If neither is set, host authorization is done and the expected server credential is cas/<fqdn>, where <fqdn> is the fully qualified domain name of the host on which the CAS service is up.

-debug Runs the client with debug message traces and error stack traces.
-help Prints the usage message for the client.
-v Prints the version number.
