Paul,
Depending on what version of keystone you are utilizing there are a couple
options to use the UUID token format (instead of PKI).
Very recent (current master) of keystone uses a pluggable provider system.
To set the provider to uuid, in the [token] section set the option:
provider=keystone.token.providers.uuid.Provider
In older versions I believe the option (still in the [token] section) is:
token_format=UUID
I hope this info helps you out some.
Cheers,
Morgan Fainberg
