Class AgentServerTicket

java.lang.Object
  |
  +--ajanta.util.AgentServerTicket

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable

public class AgentServerTicket

extends java.lang.Object

implements java.io.Serializable

The AgentServerTicket class represents a type of capability required by clients to invoke services which require authentication. It contains the agent server's certificate and a nonce to be signed by the entity to whom it is being sent. From the next message onwards, the agent server would be sending a CompleteTicket to the other entity. Note that the AgentServerTicket is to be used only for authentication by an agent server to an agent. It could potentially be used for agentserver to agentserver, but we don't want to disturb any code that has already been written earlier, using the authenticate() method of the AServer interface.
