1. A network system comprising:
- terminals identified with an inherent terminal identifier;
a communication network for communicating voice, data, and other information among said terminals;
a gateway for connecting said communication network to a computer network, and appending said inherent terminal identifier to a first request for service;
a first computer system connected to said computer network, for referring to said inherent terminal identifier to provide the service in response to said first request;
a second computer system connected to said computer network;
a third computer system connected to said first computer system through said second computer system, wherein said second computer system includes;
a unit for generating a second terminal identifier suitable for the format of said inherent terminal identifier;
a unit for generating a session control identifier related to said third computer system;
a unit for relating said second terminal identifier to said session control identifier; and
a unit responsive to a second request from said third computer system for appending said second terminal identifier to said second request, and sending said second request to said first computer system.

Abstract
To provide a technique for connection from a conventional personal computer having no terminal ID to a service site for mobile phone terminals. A simulation server 4 is set as the proxy server for a personal computer 5 or 9. In the proxy server (simulation server 4), terminal ID'"'"'s suitable for the format are generated, and a cookie is generated for each personal computer or session. The terminal ID'"'"'s and cookies are related and stored as a hash table 10. In the proxy server 4, a terminal ID is appended to a request from the personal computer 5 or 9, and the request is transferred to an i-mode server 3 along with the terminal ID.
