  • 1.  Default web site name - Automated Script

    Posted Mon January 29, 2024 03:54 AM

    Hi

    We will shortly be updating our gateways (11.2.4) to SSO.

    In the IIS automated script there is a section to enable:

    :: Enable SSO (True/False)
    ::
    set enable_SSO=False

    There is also section for the Default web site name:

    :: set Default web site name
    :: This is the name of the web site that the CA alias is created in (ex. Default Web Site)
    ::
    set web_site=Default Web Site

    The Default web site name we use in IIS is not "Default Web Site". Is it ok to amend the script to use the different Default web site name?

    The reason I ask is that I seem to recall doing this in the past and this seemed to have no effect

    Many Thanks

    Hi Scott,

    I just did a test with IIS creating a new site and changing the parameter in the scipt:  set web_site=GregsWebsite

    Works like a charm.

    Good luck

    Greg
