Creating the Microsoft IIS 6.0 Agent
Configuration File
The agent for Microsoft IIS 6.0 provides a Visual Basic (VB) script to help you
create the agent configuration file. When you run it, the VB script prompts for
information related to the Web Site Identifier, the agent you areinstalling, and Sun
ONE Identity Server and creates the agent configuration file based on the
information. About the Web Site Identifier, Microsoft IIS 6.0has aunique Identifier
associated with every web site on the web server. The Web Site Identifier is
displayed when youstartthe Microsoft InternetInformation Services Managerand
click Web Sites. The Identifier column indicates the unique identifier associated
with every web site.
To create the agent configuration file, perform the below steps.
1. Change to the directory \Agent_Install_Dir\iis6\bin . This directory stores
the script required to create the agent configuration file.
2. Run the following command:
cscript.exe IIS6CreateConfig.vbs defaultConfig
where, IIS6CreateConfig.vbs is the VB script and defaultConfig is the agent
configuration file created by this command.
NOTE
When you are deploying the agent on multiple web sites, you must create a unique
agent configuration file for each of the web sites. You can use the following steps to
create multiple agent configuration files. Only, make sure that you give a unique file
name to each of the configuration files.
