ABSTRACT:
A method for maintaining login service parameters includes a step of allocating space for and storing a login service parameter portion of a logged in port. A login service parameter of a logged in port is then compared with stored login service parameter structures. If the login service parameter of the logged in port, except for a login service parameter portion thereof, is identical with one of the stored login service parameters, a step of adding a first pointer to that stored login service parameters structure into the stored login service parameter portion structure is carried out. A new login service parameter portion structure is allocated and the process repeated, thereby creating a linked list of login service parameter portion structures, each login service parameter portion structure pointing to both the stored login service parameter structure and to a next login service parameter portion structure. If a logged in port login service parameter, except for a login service parameter portion thereof, is not identical with any of the stored login service parameters, a step of designating a login service parameter structure in memory for the logged in port is carried out, followed by a step of writing the logged in port login service parameter into the designated login service parameter structure. A pointer to the designated login service parameter structure is added into the allocated login service parameter portion structure is added, as well as a pointer to a next allocated login service parameter portion structure.
