An Authentication System Development in Application of Grid Middleware to a Nationwide Joint-Use Environment for Computing

In the Cybermedia Center, Osaka University (CMC), we have applied the NAREGI grid middleware to our latest large-scale computing system for nationwide joint-use, and have made grid computing technology available on them coexisting with the conventional computing style. In this paper, we will describe an authentication system solving the problems which we have encountered in construction of the grid environment.
