OSF is working on integrating DCE with WWW servers and browsers. The DCE
Web project home page is:
http://www.osf.org/www/dceweb/DCE-Web-Home-Page.html
The initial effort, which tunnelled HTTP requests down secure DCE RPC, produced
a server, browser, gateway, and library, that are available via the Web.
The current effort is integrating DCE with the server more tightly
(to take advantage of threads), decoupling the client support to work with
off-the-shelf browsers (through a personal proxy), and providing a gateway
from other secure systems to DCE Web (initially, from SSL).
