Role based access control promises a more flexible form of access control for distributed systems. Rather than basing access solely on the identity of a principal the decision also takes into account the roles that the principal currently holds. We present a distributed architecture that supports the OASIS role based access control model. The OASIS model is based on certificates held by the client and validated by credential records held by servers. We wish to replicate and distribute the credential records to support high availability and reduce latency for certificate validation. Protocols are presented for maintaining replicated credential databases and coping with both server and network failures.
