Current implementations include: GridShibCA::OpenSSLCA and GridShibCA::MyProxyCA

getOpenSSLDN(): Return the DN for the user in OpenSSL format (e.g. /C=US/O=Example/CN=John Smith).; Arguments: None; Returns: DN as string, or undef on error
getProtectedOpenSSLDN(): Return the DN for the user in OpenSSL format with any forward slahses protected so that it can be passed to OpenSSL. E.g.:; /C=US/O=Example/OU=https:\/\/someurl.edu\/foo/CN=John Smith).; Arguments: None; Returns: DN as string, or undef on error
getCADN(): Return the DN of the CA.; Arguments: None; Returns: CA DN as string, undef on error

signRequest(): Given a certificate request return a certificate; Arguments: PEM-encoded PKCS10 certificate request as string.; Returns: Certificate as string, or undef on error
setCredLifetime(): Set the lifetime of signed credentials; Arguments: Lifetime in seconds; Returns: 1 on success, 0 on error
getCredLifetime(): Get the lifetime of signed credentials.; Arguments: None; Returns: Credential lifetime in seconds
getError(): Return the last error message as a string.; Arguments: None; Returns: Error string
convertRFC2253DNToOpenSSL(): Convert a DN in RFC 2253 format to OpenSSL ``oneline'' format as used by the Globus Toolkit.; Arguments: DN string in RFC 2253 format; Returns: DN string in OpenSSL ``oneline'' format
