Summary
This test checks the setting for policy 'Enable RPC Endpoint Mapper Client Authentication' on Windows hosts (at least Windows 8.1). The setting controls whether RPC clients authenticate with the Endpoint Mapper Service when the call they are making contains authentication information. The Endpoint Mapper Service on computers running Windows NT4 (all service packs) cannot process authentication information supplied in this manner.
