Unless you specifically excluded the access drivers then your Windows server should allow Access/Jet databases by default.

Now whether or not they can set-up "DSN connections" depends on how you configured the "plan" they are signed up with.

But DSN connections are not required to use Access DBs. They are just an added feature that some people may find useful.
