Abstract

Networked resources that are not located behind a proxy authentication server may be enabled to use the proxy authentication server for authentication. This may provide one or more of the features associated with a proxy authentication server (e.g., centralized administration of authentication and/or access information, enhancing software security, centralized administration of permission information, and/or other features) for the resources not located behind the proxy authentication server. These features may be provided without requiring substantial modification of the proxy authentication server.
