Hello:

AG2.4 will automatically request and retrieve an anonymous
certificate the first time a user starts it. You could look at
that code to see how it is done:

http://fl-cvs.mcs.anl.gov/viewcvs/viewcvs.cgi/AccessGrid/AccessGrid/Security/CertificateManager.py?rev=1.38.2.12&content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup

I can give you additional pointers if you need them.

If you were to automatically request an identity certificate,
you could collect at least some of the identifying information
from the system, but would have to either generate a passphrase
or prompt the user for one.
