An encrypted communication method, and a system for the method, can transfer a session control message designated by identification information inherent to an application to a connection destination through a session management server. When an application program of a client or encrypted communication software issues a connection request in the form designating an application server by identification information inherent to each application, the identification information is automatically changed to a desired address-of-record capable of domain identification and a transfer destination domain of a reception message is judged.
