Siebel Security Guide > Web Single Sign-On Authentication > Process of Implementing Web Single Sign-On > Creating Protected Virtual DirectoriesThis topic describes how to create virtual directories in a Web SSO implementation. Creating virtual directories allows users to access a Siebel application and anonymously browse specific views while requiring Web SSO authentication to access other views in the application. This task is an optional step in Process of Implementing Web Single Sign-On. Protected virtual directories are used with Siebel Business Applications that support anonymous browsing. By making parts of the application available under two Web server virtual directories you are able to configure the third-party authentication client to protect one virtual directory while leaving the other unprotected, and thus accessible for anonymous browsing. When a user requests a Siebel view that requires explicit login, the request is automatically redirected to the protected virtual directory. and the user must enter a Web SSO login to proceed. You must perform the following tasks to specify to the Web server a virtual directory for Siebel Business Applications. You must repeat both stages of this process for each Siebel application that users access through the Web server.
The actual path for each virtual directory and the DLL file are identical for every Siebel application. Use the following procedure to create a virtual directory. To create a virtual directory on Microsoft Internet Information Server
Use the following procedure to specify the DLL file that allows the SWSE to communicate with the Web server. NOTE: The following procedure applies if you are using the Microsoft IIS Web server as your single sign-on authentication service. If you are using a different Web SSO solution, you might have to configure the virtual directory differently. To allow the SWSE to communicate with the Web server
