Issue/Introduction

 

When running Federation Services, once user logs on IdP side, the browser
goes back to the login page :

  http://10.0.0.1:80/siteminderagent/forms/login.fcc

 

Cause

 

At first glance, the browser seems to reach the login page by its IP
address.

  http://10.0.0.1:80/siteminderagent/forms/login.fcc

This should not be as the Web Agent needs the FQDN from the URL in
order to set the domain to the created cookie.

 

Resolution

- Insure configuration all URL are defined by FQDN and not IP
  address :

  http://10.0.0.1:80/siteminderagent/forms/login.fcc

  should be something like :

  http://myhost.mydomain.com:80/siteminderagent/forms/login.fcc
