RE: CosignIIS problems

["Brett Lomas" <b.lomas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Jarod, and all.


I am in the process of creating an installer for the UoA for the IISCosign.
I am attempting to make it so that it will interview the end user and create
the cosign.dll.config based on answers the user gave and also configure the
IIS server (ie add the filter to the web servers the user selects).

Would this be something you guys would be interested in, as I think it would
be generic enough that it would be able to be used universally?

One thing to note with IIS 6.0 is that the filter doesn't usually load
until necessary.  That is, until a client actually tries to access a
page on a web site with the IISCosign filter running.
