Abstract

A network includes a server 1 and a number of clients 2, which will in operation of the network require authentication by the server 1. The server 1 distributes authentication information to other clients 3 when a session is initialised. When the server 1 needs to authenticate a client 2, it hands out a server request to the client 2 which asks client 2 for authentication information which it must obtain from other clients 3. The client to be authenticated 2 then sends these requests to the clients 3 specified in the authentication request to obtain the authentication information from those clients. Once the client to be authenticated 2 has received the relevant authentication information from the other clients 3, it returns it to the server 1 and is authenticated or not accordingly.
