The WMS NTFS ACL Authorization plug-in is used to control access
to your content based on permissions you have set on files and
directories in your NTFS file system. You can use this plug-in to
grant permissions for users and groups to access your Windows Media
server.
Note
If your publishing point references content
files on a computer running Windows 2000 Server, you may have
difficulty streaming the content due to differences in the way that
Windows 2000 Server and Windows Server 2003 handle user
account authorization and rights. If the two computers are members
of the same domain, on-demand publishing points with the WMS NTFS
ACL Authorization plug-in enabled that attempt to retrieve content
from the computer running Windows 2000 Server will cause remote
clients to receive an error message. Local clients are not
affected. If the two computers are not members of the same domain,
see To access
content on a computer running Windows 2000 Server.
