First Claim
1. A remote processor for executing processing requested from a client via a network, comprising:
- authenticating information registration means having authenticating information registered, which is a combination of user-configurable user setting information and device-specific information specific to the client; and

Abstract
A remote processor for executing processing requested from a client via a network, wherein an access right is authenticated using authenticating information generated by combining user-configurable user setting information such as a user name and a password with device-specific information specific to the client such as a MAC address to improve security for remote accesses. An initial access is authenticated using user setting information specified by an administrator. If the authentication is successful, the device-specific information of the client is automatically acquired and registered. Subsequent accesses are authenticated by using the user setting information and the device-specific information as conditions logically ANDed together for the access right authentication.

2. A remote processor for executing processing requested from a client via a network, comprising:
-
initial authenticating information registration means having initial authenticating information registered for initially authenticating an access right;
initial authentication means for authenticating the access right on the basis of the initial authenticating information upon receiving an initial registration request from the client;
device-specific information acquisition means for acquiring device-specific information, which is specific to the client, from the client if said initial authentication means authenticates the access right;
device authenticating information registration means for registering the device-specific information acquired by said device-specific information acquisition means as device authenticating information; and
authentication means for authenticating the access right by using authenticating information including a part or all of the device authenticating information upon receiving a processing request from the client. - View Dependent Claims (3)
