PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To allow a listener operating in user mode to dispatch control of a client connection to a network component (NC) without exposing system memory or other sensitive services or components. SOLUTION: For example, a client component (CC) requests access to an NC through connection with a user-mode listener. Based on information contained in the client request, the listener passes a call to an application program interface (API), and the API returns a first set of data including user-mode context information. The listener passes the first set of data to the requested NC. Another call is made to an API including the first set of data and a request for socket duplication, and the API returns control of the requested socket to the NC. Thus, the NC and the CC directly communicate in user mode through the requested socket. COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI
