Manually Configure a Sun Java System Web Server
Chapter 6: Configure a Sun Java System Web Agent 119
Manually Configure a Sun Java System Web Server
The SiteMinder Web Agent Configuration wizard only configures the default
instance of your Sun Java System web server. If you want to configure a
different instance of the Sun Java System web server to use SiteMinder, you
need to manually edit the obj.conf file that is used by that server instance.
Examples of server instances that need manual configuration include:
Servers installed in a non-default directory
Servers you want to configure as a reverse proxy (we recommend
configuring the reverse proxy using your Sun Java System interface before
adding the SiteMinder settings to the obj.conf file).
Virtual servers on the same computer
