Network management system permitting remote management of systems by users with limited skills
First Claim
1. A method whereby a first processor interacts with a second processor via a network, the method comprising the steps performed in the second processor of:
- receiving a first message from the first processor;
responding thereto by fetching user profile information via the network from a remote database that is remote from the second processor; and
interacting further with the first processor as permitted by the fetched user profile information.

Abstract
A method and system to establish and delegate control of client-server computer systems over a wireless network according to policies established dynamically by an authority. In particular, one embodiment of the present invention includes a system to specify and promulgate user and command profiles that constrain wireless handsets to execution of commands specified in said user and command profiles, to specify and execute general-purpose computer commands to computers that are nodes in distributed networks or sub networks from a wireless device together with a method and system to monitor the status of specified computer services and specified computers and alert the wireless device user to exceptional conditions.

10. A method whereby a first processor interacts with a second processor via a network, the method comprising the steps performed in the first processor of:
-
sending a first message to the second processor; and
interacting further with the second processor as permitted by user profile information which the second processor fetches from a remote database in response to the first message, the remote database being remote to the second processor. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A method whereby a first processor interacts with a second processor via a network, the method being performed in a remote database that is remote from the second processor and accessible via the network and comprising the steps of:
-
receiving a request for user profile information associated with the first and second processors from the second processor, the second processor sending the request in response to an initial message from the first processor; and
providing the requested user profile information to the second processor, the second processor thereupon interacting with the first processor as permitted by the provided user profile information. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19)
