I setup a very basic streaming server. I looking to setup a radio station of
one stream for my Forum group.

I created the server on Windows 2003 R2 and started a basic playlist of 5 MP3.

On the local server that is running WMS I am able to play the broadcast, but
when I try and connect with a local computer on the network (not part of the
security groups of the local server) I am unable to connect to the stream.

I have WMS Anonymous User Authentication enabled.

What am I doing wrong?

Also, don't forget to add the windows media services .exe (program) to
the windows firewall. Do NOT turn off windows firewall on the server,
add WMS to the firewall exceptions list. See windows help on how to do
that.
