Installing and Configuring the IIS 7.0 Agent

Creating a Configuration File for the IIS 7.0 Agent

The IIS7CreateConfig.vbs script creates the IIS 7.0 agent configuration file. The IIS7CreateConfig.vbs script prompts you for information and then creates a configuration file that you can use later to configure the IIS 7.0 agent.

You must have Administrator privileges to run the IIS7CreateConfig.vbs script.

Note: If you are deploying the IIS 7.0 agent on multiple Web sites, you must create a unique agent configuration file for each of the Web sites.

ProcedureTo Create a Configuration File for the IIS 7.0 Agent

  1. On the Windows 2008 Server instance, open a command window. For example, click Start, Run, and then type cmd.

  2. Change to the PolicyAgent-base\bin directory.

    where PolicyAgent-base depends where you unzipped the IIS 7.0 agent distribution file. For example:

    For example: C:\Agents\web_agents\iis7_agent\bin

    The \bin directory contains the IIS7CreateConfig.vbs script, which you run to create the agent configuration file.

  3. Create the agent configuration file by issuing the following case-sensitive command:

    cscript IIS7CreateConfig.vbs ConfigFile

    where ConfigFile is the unique name for agent configuration file.

    For example: cscript IIS7CreateConfig.vbs IIS7Config.txt

    The IIS7CreateConfig.vbs script creates this file and then saves your responses to prompts about the agent host and the OpenSSO Enterprise server in the file.

  4. When prompted, provide the following information about the IIS 7.0 server that this agent will protect:

    • Agent Resource File Name: Accept the default value IIS7Resource.en (English version).

    • Agent URL: : Specify the URL for the IIS 7.0 agent including the port number. For example: http://agenthost.example.com:80

    • Web Site Identifier: Specify the unique identifier associated with the Web site for which you are creating a configuration file. Accept a value from the displayed list.

  5. When prompted, provide the following information about the OpenSSO Enterprise host:

    • OpenSSO server URL, including the deployment URI: For example: http://ssohost.example.com:8080/opensso

    • Agent Profile name: For example: IIS7Agent.

    • Agent Profile password File: Path to the file that contains the agent profile password. For example: C:\tmp\IIS7Agentpw.txt

Configuring the IIS 7.0 Agent for a Web Site

The IIS7Admin.vbs script configures the IIS 7.0 agent for a specific Web site, based on an agent configuration file created by the IIS7CreateConfig.vbs script.

You must have Administrator privileges to run the IIS7Admin.vbs script.

The IIS7Admin.vbs script performs these functions:

Note: To configure the IIS 7.0 agent for multiple Web sites, follow this procedure for each Web site, using a unique agent configuration file for each site.

ProcedureTo Configure the IIS 7.0 Agent for a Web Site

  1. On the Windows 2008 Server instance, open a command window. For example, click Start, Run, and then type cmd.

  2. Change to the PolicyAgent-base\bin directory.

    where PolicyAgent-base depends where you unzipped the IIS 7.0 agent distribution file. For example:

    For example: C:\Agents\web_agents\iis7_agent\bin

  3. Configure the Web site for the IIS 7.0 agent by running the IIS7Admin.vbs script with the -config option.

    For example: cscript IIS7Admin.vbs -config IIS7Config.txt

    where IIS7Config.txt is the agent configuration file that you created in Creating a Configuration File for the IIS 7.0 Agent.

    Notes:

    • The script name and options are case-sensitive.

    • For the Agent Resource File Name prompt, accept the default value (IIS7Resource.en).

    The IIS7Admin.vbs script displays the progress of the configuration, as shown in the following sample:

  4. Ensure that the IIS 7.0 authentication method is set to Anonymous.

  5. Restart IIS 7.0 using the iisreset command. For example, in a command prompt, type iisreset.

Next Steps

To view the agent log file (amAgent), see PolicyAgent-base\debug\Identifier_site-identifier\logs\debug, where site-identifier is a number such as 1 that identifies the Web site where the IIS 7.0 agent is being configured.

Verfiying an IIS 7.0 Agent Installation

ProcedureTo Verify an IIS 7.0 Agent Installation

  1. Attempt to access a resource protected by the IIS 7.0 agent.

    If the agent is installed correctly, accessing the protected resource will redirect you to the OpenSSO Enterprise server login page.

  2. Log in to the OpenSSO Enterprise server.

    After a successful authentication, you should be able to access the protected resource, if the agent is correctly defined.

Considering Specific Deployment Scenarios for the IIS 7.0 Agent

Installing the IIS 7.0 Agent on Multiple IIS 7.0 Servers

After you install the IIS 7.0 agent on a specific IIS 7.0 server, you can install the agent on another IIS 7.0 server instance by running the IIS7CreateConfig.vbs and IIS7Admin.vbs scripts again for the new server instance.

You can also just copy and edit an existing IIS 7.0 agent configuration file, providing new values for the new IIS 7.0 server instance. Then, run the IIS7Admin.vbs script using the edited agent configuration file.

The IIS7Admin.vbs script creates the OpenSSOAgentBootstrap.properties and OpenSSOAgentConfiguration.properties files for the new server instance, so you do not need to copy and edit these files manually for the new instance.

Installing the IIS 7.0 Agent on the OpenSSO Enterprise Host Server

OpenSSO Enterprise is not supported on the web container. Therefore, installing the IIS 7.0 agent and OpenSSO Enterprise on the same server instance is not supported.
