Internet-scale distributed applications (such as wide-area service and device discovery and location, user preference management, the Domain Name Service, and personalized web portal pages) impose interesting requirements on information storage, management, and retrieval. They maintain structured soft-state and pose numerous queries against that state. These \Query Enabled" applications typical...

This document presents brief software specification of a secure file exchange system prototype involving mutual authentication of the users via their browser and the application server with PKI-based certificates as credentials, the use of LDAP for credential management, and authentication between the application and database servers to maintain a high level of trust between all parties.

This paper presents Group Membership Service for JXTA extended with single or bi-directional authentication. The proposed solution exploits certificates and PKI (Public Key Infrastructure). All information about the system's users is kept in the LDAP. An attention has been also paid to the problem of a private key secure protection.

We survey the history, development and usage of directory services based on the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP). We present a summary of the naming model, the schema model, the principal service models, and the main protocol interactions in terms of a C language application programming interface.

One of the impediments to a successful roll out of X.509-based public key infrastructures (PKIs), is that LDAP directories do not fully support PKIs. In particular, it is not possible to search for X.509 attributes (certificates or CRLs) that match user defined criteria. This paper describes the various approaches that have been suggested for enabling users to search for X.509 attributes, namel...
