Microsoft Office SharePoint and Outlook Web Access: Unconfiguring the Agent

If you no longer require Agent for Microsoft IIS 6.0 to protect Microsoft Office SharePoint or Outlook Web Access, you can unconfigure the agent. Be aware that to uninstall the agent, you must first unconfigure it.

The task that follows in this section is similar to the task in Agent Unconfiguration for Microsoft IIS 6.0. However, this task is specific to deployments where Agent for Microsoft IIS 6.0 protects Microsoft Office SharePoint or Outlook Web Access. Though the unconfiguration task varies, the uninstallation task does not. The uninstallation task that applies to all deployments of this agent is as follows Agent Uninstallation for Microsoft IIS 6.0.

Microsoft Office SharePoint and Outlook Web Access: To Unconfigure Agent for Microsoft IIS 6.0

1. Change to the directory PolicyAgent-base\iis6\bin

2. Run the following VB script to unconfigure the agent (be aware that the command is case sensitive):

   cscript.exe IIS6AuthAdmin.vbs -unconfig defaultConfig

   IIS6AuthAdmin.vbs

   is a VB script that uses the output of the IIS6CreateConfig.vbs script. The output was saved to a configuration file, which for this example is represented by defaultConfig.

   -unconfig

   is the option that allows the output to be used to unconfigure Agent for Microsoft IIS 6.0 to protect Microsoft Office SharePoint or Outlook Web Access.

   defaultConfig

   represents the agent configuration file created previously as described in To Create Configuration Files: Agent for Microsoft IIS 6.0.

   The script unconfigures the agent and displays the following message:

   Microsoft (R) Windows Script Host Version 5.6 Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation 1996-2001. All rights reserved. Copyright c 2004 Sun Microsystems, Inc. All rights reserved Use is subject to license terms Enter the Agent Resource File Name [IIS6Resource.en] : Removing the Agent Config Directory Removing the entries from Windows Product Registry Unloading the IIS 6.0 Agent Completed Unconfiguring the IIS 6.0 Agent

   The unconfiguration does the following:

   • Removes the agent configuration directory

   • Removes the entries from Windows registry.

   • Removes the wild card application mappings in Microsoft IIS 6.0.

3. Accept the default when presented with the following prompt:

   Enter the Agent Resource File Name [IIS6Resource.en]:

Next Steps

Once you have completed the unconfiguration process, see Agent Uninstallation for Microsoft IIS 6.0 to uninstall the agent.
