Frederic: I am having an email conversation with Rizart and he didn't mentioned any.

Paul: GridFTP only works with X509 for authentication. Can be solved by moving to OIDC. 

Kilian: Marek is working on Rucio and it’s good if rucio provides more debug report. He is trying to upload to DESY-DCACHE and later to GSI and having an authentication problem, identified by Paul as an internal dCache error to be looked at.

Discussion on the problem with Rucio not creating parent directories during uploads for most protocols (observed on DESY-DCACHE, as mentioned 2 weeks ago, before the current authn problem): https://github.com/rucio/rucio/issues/3681
