Environment

Novell iChain 2.3 Support Pack 4

Situation

Configuring iChain form fill to a Microsoft ISA server fronted using an Outlook web access form. The server uses a rebranded Microsoft template which is pretty much default. This will provide the following url:

https://www.novell.com/CookieAuth.dll?GetLogonWrapper?url=%2F&reason=0

Accessing this link through iChain never returns the credentials required.
Authentication (LDAP) enabled
Formfill enabled
OLAC disabled

Resolution

Apply iChain 2.3 Support Pack 4 Interim build 1 (ic23sp4ir1.exe).

Additional Information

Formfill script was never triggered going to the above URL. Loading SSO /L /D showed that no operation was performed on the URL, even though it matched the fomfill policy URL defined.
The SSO.NLM did not perform any operation on URLs with the extension DLL. Modified the SSO.NLM so that, with newer builds, URLs with DLL extensions get activated.19028
