Remarks

NetShow supports HTTP stream distribution among NetShow servers. For example, the server connected to this instance of the Unicast Manager Admin control could be distributing streams to multiple downstream servers. It may try, using HTTP, to connect to a server behind a firewall. This method is used to set the username and password credentials needed to break through the firewall if this server is challenged by a proxy server.
