8 September 7, 2004 9 Basic LionShare Components Peer Organize Search Share Collaborate

9 September 7, 2004 10 Basic LionShare Components PeerServer Users Persist files Administrators Configuration Statistics

10 September 7, 2004 11 Basic LionShare Components Security Authentication Basis for trust Digital identity

11 September 7, 2004 12 LionShare Trust Fabric

12 September 7, 2004 13 LionShare Trust Authenticated Peer Allows trust and secure connections Individuals search anonymously Can not share anonymously Ability to control access

13 September 7, 2004 14 Federated Repositories

14 September 7, 2004 15 Federated Repositories Expands the reach of P2P Repositories outside P2P Uses ECL Connector Simple identity and password But not secure Extend ECL to include security
