GridSite 1.5.x Documentation
GridSite
is a set of extensions to the Apache 2.0 webserver, which support
Grid security based on X.509 certificates. Since GridSite applies access
control within Apache itself, via mod_gridsite, Grid authorization and
the associated verified credentials are available to all technologies
supported by Apache, including static file serving, SSI, CGI, PHP, JSP and
mod_perl.
The GridSite Wiki includes
guides and cookbook examples about using GridSite, along with up to date
information about the APIs.
