ABSTRACT:
A naming service for use in a network which includes a plurality of client nodes and server nodes interconnected by a communications link. Each of the client nodes includes a clerk for transmitting service request messages to initiate selected operations. At least one of said server nodes includes a nameserver which includes a transaction agent, a database which contains a plurality of entries each containing attributes relating to an object, such as the location of related entries in any other nameservers, an update transfer portion and a control portion. The transaction agent receives service request messages from the clerk. In response to a service request message received by the transaction agent from the client node's clerk, the control module enables the update transfer section to transfer database updates over said communications link.
