Add a SiteMinder Wildcard Mapping to Protect IIS 6.0 Virtual Web Sites

SiteMinder automatically protects only the Default Web Site folder of the IIS web server. If you are running virtual web sites on your IIS 6.0 web server, add wildcard mappings to each virtual web site that you want to protect. After adding the wildcard mapping to the virtual sites, enable the Web Agent.

  1. Configure virtual servers for the IIS 6.0 web server.

    Note: For more information, see your IIS documentation.

  2. Open the IIS Management Console.

    The Properties dialog appears.

  6. In the Wildcard application maps section, click Insert.
  7. Click Browse and navigate to the following file:

    web_agent_home\SiteMinder Web Agent\Bin\ISAPI6WebAgent.dll

  8. Click OK twice.

    The Application Configuration and Properties dialogs close.

  9. Restart the virtual website.
  10. Repeat Steps 3 through 9 for each virtual web site you want to protect.

    The IIS Web Agent is ready to be enabled.
