Abstract
Techniques for connecting computer system entities to remote computer system resources are described herein. A computer system entity that requests access to a remote computer system resource has that request fulfilled by a managed directory service which receives the request and connects the computer system entity to the remote computer system resource. While connected, the managed directory service receives commands to perform operations on the remote computer system resource and, if the computer system entity is authorized to perform the operations on the remote computer system resource, the managed directory service performs the operation on the remote computer system resource.
