  Sun aims new server software at online IDs
Time: 04:23 EST/09:23 GMT | News Source: CNET | Posted By: Alex Harris

Sun Microsystems unveiled new server software Tuesday to boost an effort to create a universal online identification system that serves as an alternative to Microsoft's Passport service. Sun released software that supports new technology by the Liberty Alliance Project, which on Monday released an online identification standard that lets people surf the Web without having to constantly re-enter passwords, names and other data at different sites.

Sun's new Identity Server 6.0, which manages computer users' access and authentication, now supports the Liberty standard. The Identity Server includes a built-in version of Sun's directory server-software, technology that serves as a "white pages" of information about computer users and resources, such as PCs and software. With the latest version of its Identity Server product, Sun joins half a dozen other companies, including software maker Novell and security software companies RSA Security and Entrust, that are supporting or planning to support Liberty in their products.
