Specify the IIS Proxy User

Configuring a SOA Agent for Web Servers to protect IIS requires that you configure the following settings in the Agent Configuration Object:

Note: If you plan to use the NTLM authentication scheme, or enable the Windows User Security Context feature, do not specify values for these IIS parameters.

DefaultUserName

Specifies the username of the IIS Proxy user.

DefaultPassword

Specifies the password of the IIS Proxy user.

The DefaultUserName and DefaultPassword identify an existing NT user account that has sufficient privileges to access resources on an IIS web server protected by SOA Security Manager. When users want to access resources on an IIS Web server protected by SOA Security Manager, they may not have the necessary server access privileges. The SOA Agent must use this NT user account, which is assigned by an NT administrator, to act as a proxy user account for users granted access by SOA Security Manager.
