Hello,

There are no good reasons to run IIS in 99% of cases. IIS is acting as a front 
end to Tomcat, doing nothing more than passing on requests using an old 
connector called mod_jk, which isn't heavily tested on Windows judging by the 
recent 64bit builds not working properly. Indeed, we were asked by BMC to do an 
SSO installation for one of their clients last year and our first job was to 
"fix" the MId Tier, because the problematic mod_jk build had 'escaped' into a 
7603/7604 release (I can't recall which). It just wouldn't work, and we found 
ourselves spending more time debugging IIS than installing SSO Plugin.

All you need is Tomcat standalone, or a farm of Tomcats and a load balanacer if 
you are going to be supporting many hundreds of users.


John
