I have a ASP.NET MVC Web Site running with Siteminder SOO. Al security is working correctly, except the Home Page.
In the SiteMinder configuration i have only one Realm with Resource Filter: "/" and Default Resource Protection: "Protected". So, all uris are protected. And i have rules for each uri, and a set of Domain Policies that works fine with these rules. The problem is the root page; i don't know how to write a Rule that allow access to the home page, for example: "http://misite.com/".
If I create a Rule with resource = "/", then the Effective Resource is: "my-siteminder-agent//". And a policy with this rule never applies.
¿How can i create a Rule to allow access to the home page for authenticated users?
I solved it using a Rule on SiteMinder to allow Access to '/Home' and a redirect with the IIS Rewrite Module.
<rewrite>
<rules>
<rule name="Root Hit Redirect" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="^$" />
<action type="Redirect" url="/Home" />
</rule>
</rules>
</rewrite>
