Dear all,

I need one serious and urgent support and idea for our valued
professionals.

* I need to protect my MMS (Microsoft Media Service) and RTSP (Real Time
streaming Protocol) stream.

I want to setup firewall or any security in my Windows Media Server 2003
where my video streams are located. Only authenticated request from our
web-domain should access the media streams.

Please advise any solution to descard the request from any other sources
then from authenciated defined users from web-domain interface.

Note: Format of the media stream is MMS://IP address/header
