Inter-Authentication-Domain (IAD) logon protocol (preliminary specification and implementation guide)
With the development of computer networking, it has become desirable for users to interact with hosts and distributed operating systems from terminals not directly connected to those systems. Users and the institutions for which they work require distributed interactive services to take advantage of specialized software and hardware as well as economically priced computing capacity. A classical example of this requirement occurs in the ARPANET and it is becoming more widespread as local networks are interconnected. The problem of providing distributed interactive services is complicated by the heterogeneity of the systems involved. This heterogeneity is a characteristic of both the systems themselves as well as of the protocols they support. The general problems of interconnecting such systems have been previously investigated from the perspective of providing distributed interprocess communication (CEKA74, SUNC77). The framework established by this work is used to discuss the specific problem of providing distributed interactive services.
