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.
