2.1.3.1.3 Check In and Check Out

By default, check in and check out features are enabled in a protocol client only if a protocol server response contains the correct header and header value. In addition, check in and check out features work correctly in a protocol client only if the protocol server supports the FrontPage Server Extensions Web Site Management Protocol, as described in [MC-FPSEWM].

The following table describes additional conditions in which a protocol client enables check in and check out features.

In addition to these conditions, protocol clients enable check in and check out features only if the current user is permitted to check out the file. A protocol client uses the FrontPage Server Extensions Web Site Management Protocol, as described in [MC-FPSEWM], to examine permission settings for a file on a protocol server.
