Document Title: Using Network Security Program on AIX, OS/2, and DOS Platforms

Edition: First edition (March 1994) 135 Pages

Abstract:
This document describes Network Security Program (NetSP), which is a distributed authentication and key distribution programme that can run on the AIX/6000. OS/2, and DOS operating system platforms over TCP/IP, LU 6.2 and NetBIOS transfer protocols. The Network Security Program authenticates the identity of two communicating principles in the network and provides each with the ability to verify the identity of the other, without passwords being sent in clear across the network. The communicating principles can either be people (users) or programs (application servers). Messages can be signed and verified, so that any illicit alteration to them will be detected. The product also supports single signon to multiple host applications, again with passwords being sent in clear across the network.

This document was written for those who wish to install the product or write programs that use its APIs. Includes are examples of the results obtained when using the products, and sample applications which use the APIs provided.
