Using Let's Encrypt certs in Grid Computing?

Please fill out the fields below so we can help you better. Note: you must provide your domain name to get help. Domain names for issued certificates are all made public in Certificate Transparency logs (e.g. https://crt.sh/?q=example.com), so withholding your domain name here does not increase secrecy, but only makes it harder for us to provide help.

My domain is: heller-tsm.dyn.mwn.de

I ran this command:

It produced this output:

My web server is (include version):

The operating system my web server runs on is (include version): Ubuntu

My hosting provider, if applicable, is:

I can login to a root shell on my machine (yes or no, or I don’t know): yes

I’m using a control panel to manage my site (no, or provide the name and version of the control panel): no

I am sure people have done this before:
I would like to use your certificate for Grid Computing with Globus GridFTP. However, I need the proper
*.r0
*.signing_policy
*.namespaces
*.info
*.crl_url
*.0
files. Before I create them myself: someone surely has done this already. Can you help me out?

It appears that the Grid operates in a separate PKI to that in which Let’s Encrypt operates (the Web PKI).

Apart from both utilizing x.509 technology, I do not think they have anything in common and you wouldn’t be able to use a CA from the Web PKI within the Grid PKI.
