ABSTRACT:
A method for controlling access to a resource running on a host computer by one or more users which uses a timing policy to control when a current authorized user can be replaced by a new authorized user. The method comprises the steps of scanning a first list to verify that the new user is on the first list, scanning a second list to determine if a current user can be replaced without violating the timing policy, and granting the new user access to the resource if the timing policy is not violated. The method can be used to control access to an application program running on a file server in a local area network.
