Abstract

Abstract: As the web server based system is being used more and more, having separate web servers for each task to distribute the web server's load are gaining much more popularity over having one main web server to process all the tasks. When the user tries to access each web server that contains number of web documents that are linked to each other via hyper-link within the domain, each web server asks the user to follow the verification process even though the user is identical, and this prohibits the user from using the system efficiently. Role based access control method, which is the most suitable access control concept available now for the distributed web server based system within the domain, will be used in this paper. Additionally, the method on controlling the level of web document contents available to the user based on the user's access permission rights will be introduced to reduce the granularity of the document content access.
