On the File Screening Management node of the File Server Resource Manager MMC snap-in, you can perform the following tasks:
- Create file screens to control the types of
files that users can save, and generate notifications when users
attempt to save unauthorized files.
- Define file screening templates that can be
applied to new volumes or folders and that can be used across an
organization.
- Create file screening exceptions that extend
the flexibility of the file screening rules.
For example, you can:
- Ensure that no music files are stored on
personal folders on a server—yet you could allow storage of
specific types of media files that support legal rights management
or comply with company policies. In the same scenario, you might
want to give a vice president in the company special privileges to
store any type of files in his personal folder.
- Implement a screening process to notify you
by e-mail when an executable file is stored on a shared folder,
including information about the user who stored the file and the
exact location of the file, so that you can take the appropriate
precautionary steps.
