UpdateLRCuserDelete

Overview

In order to support remote deletion of user datasets (not supported within DQ2 framework) a new feature has been added to the LRCWWW interface to support deletion of PFN records from the LRC (via https: requests) and also the deletion of the actual files (which may require some additional configuration so that file ownership is not a problem - there is a "helper script" to do the actual removal).

All requests are done via https and require the user to have a valid x509 cert.

Code

The code can be found at http://repo.mwt2.org/viewvc/lrc-adler32
