Online File Access and Authentication System in Campus Network

Abstract

The organizational systems are replaced with the computer networking system all over the worl d. File systems are responsible for the organization, storage, retrieval, naming, sharing and protection of files. The system mainly uses the network fi le system for online file accessed in campus network. It is implemented to check the user allowed time a nd access permission for the files and folders in the system. Also it is essential to implement security measures to avoid the access by unauthorized users. In this system, security is the key to authenticate client requests so that access control at the s erver is based on the correct user identities and to protect the contents of files and folders with encrypted passwords. The system used password hashing process to get the hashed password for authorized users of the system. So, Message Digest 5 (MD 5) is used to create hash of passwords allowing an encrypted form of password to be sent over network or stored in file system. Therefore, this file accessed system is useful for everyone who wants to access its own files to multiple users in the local area network.
