A trusted agent for enabling the check of the access of a user operating a first computer system controlled by a first security system to software and/or data on a second computer system controlled by a second security system. The trusted agent includes several functions, including: (a) reception of a user-id for the second computer system and transmission of the user-id to the second security system; (b) retrieval of a shared secret, which is registered in the fist security system and in the second security system, from the second security system; and (3) transmission of the shared secret from the trusted agent to the second computer system.

Method for checking user access

A remote procedure call marshaling architecture provides remote procedure call interoperability between computers having arbitrary native data format pointer sizes not conforming to an on-wire multicanonical data representation of the remote procedure calls. The architecture includes an interface description language compiler having a code path generic to effecting marshaling of data structures containing non-conformant pointers. When compiled to run on a computing platform having a native, non-conformant pointer size, the code path is automatically configured to effect marshaling of data structure containing pointers of the computing platform's native pointer size.
