2.1. Use the Correct Hostname

Globus and its openssl-based PKI tools require the hostname of your server to be the primary DNS fully-qualified domain name. You may also not name use DNS aliases, or an abbreviated hostname. This is because all certificate checks do a reverse DNS lookup and must resolve to the correct distinguished name (DN) used to build the certificate. To insure you configure your server correctly use the FQDN of your machine for the hostname when prompted during the Rocks installation.
