VDT 1.3.6 Release

We are pleased to announce the release of VDT 1.3.6.

New Supported Platform

• Vanilla ROCKS 3.3. The VDT does not support Scientific Linux installed via ROCKS.
• Fermi Scientific Linux 3.0. This fixes previous problems with the UPS Perl.

New Features

• New config scripts configure_edg_crl_update and configure_edg_make_gridmap allow you to configure the respective daemons after the install.
• VOMS now works on Debian Linux.
• VOMS and GUMS configuration files are now saved in vdt-app-data to make future VDT upgrades easier.

Bug Fixes

• If your VDT install fails you should now be able to restart it without blowing your old install away.
• Some files with hardcoded paths, including the .la files in the globus/lib directory, were incorrect in past versions. They are now correct.
