Creating a Configuration File for the IIS 6.0 Agent

The IIS6CreateConfig.vbs script creates the IIS 6.0 agent configuration file. The IIS6CreateConfig.vbs script prompts you for information and then creates a configuration file that you can use later to configure the IIS 6.0 agent.

You must have Administrator privileges to run the IIS6CreateConfig.vbs script.

Note: If you are deploying the IIS 6.0 agent on multiple Web sites, you must create a unique agent configuration file for each of the Web sites.

To Create a Configuration File for the IIS 6.0 Agent

1. On the Windows 2003 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 6.0 agent distribution file. For example:

   For example: C:\Agents\web_agents\iis6_agent\bin

   The \bin directory contains the IIS6CreateConfig.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 IIS6CreateConfig.vbs ConfigFile

   where ConfigFile is the unique name for agent configuration file.

   For example: cscript IIS6CreateConfig.vbs IIS6Config.txt

   The IIS6CreateConfig.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 6.0 server that this agent will protect:

   • Agent Resource File Name: Accept the default value IIS6Resource.en (English version).

   • Agent URL: : Specify the URL for the IIS 6.0 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://openssohost.example.com:8080/opensso

   • Agent Profile name: For example: IIS6AgentProfile.

   • Agent Profile password File: Path to the file that contains the agent profile password. For example: C:\tmp\IIS6Agentpw.txt
