This document describes building a simple grid computing environment from existing computing resources at Taiz University in Yemen. It outlines:
1) Installing and configuring software like Globus Toolkit, Tomcat, and OGCE portal on three machines to set up basic grid services like a certificate authority server, MyProxy server, and portal server.
2) Configuring the hardware nodes, installing the portal server, setting up the certificate authority server, and MyProxy server.
3) Testing basic grid services like credential delegation to MyProxy, retrieval from MyProxy, and GridFTP file transfers.
The results indicate the proposed grid model is promising for teaching and research at Taiz University and could serve as a
