If you decide to temporarily stop using Access Manager for SSO from Microsoft Office SharePoint or Outlook Web Access to other applications, you can accomplish this by deactivating the policy filter. Therefore, uninstalling the agent would not be necessary. If you are interested in uninstalling the agent instead, see Chapter 7, Uninstalling Policy Agent 2.2 for Microsoft IIS 6.0. You can deactivate the policy filter from the Microsoft IIS 6.0 Server. The assumption is that you would reactivate the filter later.
In this guide, the tasks for deactivating and reactivating the policy filter are covered for Microsoft Office SharePoint and Outlook Web Access separately as follows:
Microsoft Office SharePoint: Deactivating and Reactivating the Access Manager Policy Filter
Outlook Web Access: Deactivating and Reactivating the Access Manager Policy Filter
Be certain to use the appropriate instructions depending on your specific deployment.
Two tasks follow: one for deactivating the policy filter and one for reactivating it.
As an administrator, log in to Windows 2003 Server where Microsoft Office SharePoint is running.
In the Microsoft Windows Start menu, choose run.
Type the following: inetmgr.
Click OK.
Expand the local computer.
Expand the Web Sites folder.
Right-click Default Web Site.
An options list appears.
In the options list, click Properties.
The Default Web Site Properties dialog box appears.
Click the ISAPI Filters tab.
Click the amspfilter filter.
Click Remove.
After removing the filter manually, as described in this task, if you want to reactivate it or if you want to unconfigure the agent by issuing the SPAdmin.vbs -unconfig command, you must first add the filter back manually (see Microsoft Office SharePoint: To Reactivate the Access Manager Policy Filter) with the same filter name, for example amspfilter. Otherwise, an error will be issued.
Click OK.
Restart the Microsoft IIS 6.0 Server.
A method for restarting this server is to enter iisreset in a command window.
As an administrator, log in to Windows 2003 Server where Microsoft Office SharePoint is running.
