Best Authentication Plugin for Windows Media Services?

[enigma]

Hi all,

I was wondering if anybody knew of a good freeware or relatively lost cost plugin for doing username/password authentication in windows media services off of an SQL backend (ie. through ODBC).

There are several [i'm sure] excellent products available for like $5k - 10k a year, such as VideoQuota from Flicks, but those prices are geared more toward someone running feeds or pay per minute video stuff (ie someone whose entire business is based around streaming), whereas I'm more interested in just doing a simple streaming webcam for membership areas.

Any info would be much appreciated!

We have a plug in for Windws Media Server that can do this and it cost $995/CPU. Ok so that is not free but you will need Windows Enterprise Server (Which cost about 4K/CPU) so $995 should not be an issue right
