Abstract
A method and apparatus allows clients to share ports on a server. The server can maintain more sessions than server ports. When a client sends a command directed to the server, a resource manager inserted between the clients and the server intercepts the command and directs the server to select the session associated with a client prior to or at the same time that the resource manager forwards the intercepted command to the server. Responses from the server are forwarded by the resource manager to the client that sent the command to which the response relates. The resource manager may be coupled to multiple clients, and one or more ports of one or more servers.
