Hi Abe, What happens on SharePoint 3.0 without the service is the following:
(1) IF you specify you are connecting to a 3.0 SharePoint when setting up your connection, you will get a connection error because the connector will try to talk with the uninstalled service. So you MUST select the SharePoint 2.0 radio button or the connector won't work at all. (2) If you select SharePoint 2.0 but you are really crawling SharePoint 3.0, the list of access tokens that ManifoldCF will not include folder or file security information, but you WILL be able to get documents, and you will be also able to get the library and site security information. (3) If there are deny tokens in the folder or file information that would have blocked a user from seeing a document, MCF will not notice this, and therefore it is possible for a search user to see documents they shouldn't. FWIW, if all you need is the prebuilt MCPermissions.asmx plugin, it is currently checked into trunk. It is copied to dist/sharepoint-integration when trunk is built.
