We recently submitted an internet draft that proposes an extension to
HTTP to enable authentication to a group of WWW servers. Using this
extension the user just has to type his user name and password once to
be able to access all ressources in a particular group of co-operating
servers. The draft is available as <draft-trommler-http-ext-groups-00.txt>
from the "usual" sites.
A prototypical implementation for AIX based on Mosaic and Httpd from NCSA
can be obtained via anonymous ftp from ftp.zurich.ibm.com in directory
/pub/trp/server-groups.
Regards,
Peter
