- NWG/RFC 408 Buzz Owen (SAAC-TIP)
- NIC #12390 Jon Postel (UCLA-NMC)
- 25 October 1972
-
- NETBANK
-
- The following idea for a protocol (or service) is offered as an
- aid to network use for new users:
-
- a single billing and account creation and validation system,
- so that a manager of a "goal oriented project" could:
-
- authorize a set of user's ids to gain access to and utilize
- resources at the entire or a specified subset of the server
- hosts.
-
- create a set of accounts which the users will expend, and
- which will be used as the breakdown for a single bill to be
- presented to the project manager.
-
- the idea is that the project manager would be required to go
- through the initialization process of introducing himself,
- verifying the existence of funding, etc. only once, and,
-
- the idea would also encourage server hosts to implement
- systems for which usage might be projected to start at low
- levels and grow, by allowing funded hacking by project members
- in a controlled manner.
-
- this would require an option at login for the prospective user
- to indicate the server should check the "netbank" facility at
- the system currently hosting it.
