Abstract
An improved method and system for centrally managing and accessing attribute information in a distributed computing system is disclosed. Applications set up application specific user attributes in a directory. When an application user connects to a server, the server automatically accesses the directory to identify the relevant user attributes for that application. These user attributes are retrieved and stored in the session context. Standard LDAP attributes can also be retrieved from the directory and stored in the session context.
