IWMSEventAuthorizationPlugin Interface

The IWMSEventAuthorizationPlugin interface contains methods that the server can call to retrieve an array of events that must be authorized and to authorize a specific event. The interface is implemented by an authorization plug-in. Authorization plug-ins are used to grant users access to content. They can only be used after authentication plug-ins have identified the client. If the identity of a client can be established but client access cannot be authorized, the server will not establish a connection.

Note

   This interface is available only on Windows Server 2003, Enterprise Edition; Windows Server 2003, Datacenter Edition; and Windows Server 2008.

In addition to the methods inherited from IUnknown, the IWMSEventAuthorizationPlugin interface exposes the following methods.
