Abstract
An access server allows secure access to commonly used files stored on multiple file sources from a variety of client devices. The access server stores user identification and password information for each of a variety of file sources. Upon receiving a login request from a user, the access server extracts a list of file sources associated with the user, and accesses each of those sources. The server is then configured to extract a list of most recently used files by the current user as well as information associated with those files. The server presents to the user an interface including links to his most recently used files.
