Under the present invention, a configurable dictionary is provided. The configurable dictionary includes a set of objects that identify: (1) attribute conditions of the computer system to be checked; (2) associated locations within the computer system for checking the attribute conditions; and (3) actions to be taken based on results of the checks for the computer system. The health of the computer system is checked by processing the set of objects in the configurable dictionary. Specifically, the attribute conditions identified in the configurable dictionary are checked at their associated locations, and any necessary action are implemented.

A method and system is provided intelligent network dispatchers that are capable of routing requests to one or more servers (e. g. , LDAP servers) based on the requested application or the identity of the requester. The servers may be grouped into virtual clusters so that a particular cluster may service requests associated with a particular application or based on a type of customer (e. g. , preferred or general customer) in order to grade levels of service. Also, a system resource monitor may provide continual monitoring of servers in virtual clusters to determine when one or more servers are overburdened or under burdened based on statistical performance data. As a servers performance changes, the system resource monitor may advise the intelligent network dispatcher causing a change in the rate of requests to the overburdened/under burdened server. The server may be temporarily removed from the virtual cluster until performance levels normalize. Further, servers may be re-assigned to other virtual clusters on demand to provide increased capacity to a virtual cluster.

The present invention provides a computer-implemented method, system, and program product for managing log-in strikes in a geographically distributed computer infrastructure. Specifically, under the present invention, when a strike message is received on a strikeout server pursuant to an incorrect password input during an attempted log-in of a user, the incorrect password is compared to a strike list to determine if it was previously received on the strikeout server during a predetermined period of time. Based on this determination, the incorrect password and will be stored in a list on the strikeout server with a corresponding timestamp. Thereafter, the strike message and the timestamp will be replicated to all other strikeout servers in the infrastructure.

A method and system for coordinating a Voice Over Internet Protocol (VoIP) teleconference. A teleconference operator drags the name of invited attendees into a hot window, which connects the invited attendees to a channel for the teleconference. Each invited attendee's name has a status icon associated with it, indicating if the invited attendee is active in the teleconference. Each invited attendee has access to a Graphical User Interface (GUI) that permits the attendee to toggle back and forth between different teleconferences.

Authenticating a first user in a protected network to an application in a DMZ network shared simultaneously with a second user in an unprotected network. The first user supplies a userID and a password to a first server within the protected network for authentication for the application. The first server checks authentication of the first user based on the userID and password. If the first user is authentic, the first server forwards to the application an authentication key for the first user and a selection by the first user pertaining to the application. The application checks authentication of the key, and if authentic, complies with the selection by the first user. The second user supplies another userID and another password to the application. If the other userID and other password are authentic, the application complies with a selection made by the second user pertaining to the application.

A method is provided to control access to a software application and, more particularly, to control access to a first software application using a second trusted application. The method comprises extracting data from a decrypted client request and determining a request type from the extracted data. The method further comprises ascertaining an entry type value from at least one of the extracted data and an entry and creating at least one string by prepending the entry type value to one or more attributes associated with the entry. Additionally, the method includes comparing the at least one string to one or more record entries to determine whether a client has permission to perform the request type.

A system and method for controlling rates for a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) over MQSeries (LoM) server. The system comprises a health metrics engine configured to calculate an actual delay value, at least one LoM server configured to asynchronously obtain the actual delay value from the health metrics engine and place the delay value between one or more requests, and a LDAP master configured to accept the one or more requests and send information in the one or more requests to a LDAP replica.
