Abstract
A relay apparatus includes a memory that stores right information indicating a right to access a service providing apparatus, a first retrieval unit that retrieves, from a client apparatus, identification information of a user registered in the service providing apparatus that is a target of an access request from the client apparatus, and an access unit that accesses the service providing apparatus as the target using the identification information retrieved by the first retrieval unit instead of the right information stored on the memory if the right information to access the service providing apparatus as the target is not valid.
Claims20
A relay apparatus comprising:
- a memory that stores right information indicating a right to access a service providing apparatus;
- a first retrieval unit that retrieves, from a client apparatus, identification information of a user registered in the service providing apparatus that is a target of an access request from the client apparatus;
- and
- an access unit that accesses the service providing apparatus as the target using the identification information retrieved by the first retrieval unit instead of the right information stored on the memory if the right information to access the service providing apparatus as the target is not valid.
A relay system comprising a relay apparatus and a client apparatus,
- wherein the relay apparatus includes:
- a memory that stores right information indicating a right to access a service providing apparatus;
- a first retrieval unit that retrieves, from a client apparatus, identification information of a user registered in the service providing apparatus that is a target of an access request from the client apparatus;
- and
- an access unit that accesses the service providing apparatus as the target using the identification information retrieved by the first retrieval unit instead of the right information stored on the memory if the right information to access the service providing apparatus as the target is not valid, and
- wherein the client apparatus makes an access request to the relay apparatus to access a service providing apparatus selected by a user.
A relay method comprising:
- storing, onto a memory, right information indicating a right to access a service providing apparatus;
- retrieving, from a client apparatus, identification information of a user registered in the service providing apparatus that is a target of an access request from the client apparatus;
- and
- accessing the service providing apparatus as the target using the retrieved identification information instead of the right information stored on the memory if the right information to access the service providing apparatus as the target is not valid.
A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process for relaying, the computer including a memory configured to store right information indicating a right to access a service providing apparatus, the process comprising:
- retrieving, from a client apparatus, identification information of a user registered in the service providing apparatus that is a target of an access request from the client apparatus;
- and
- accessing the service providing apparatus as the target using the retrieved identification information instead of the right information stored on the memory if the right information to access the service providing apparatus as the target is not valid.
