ASPSess.exe uses a Global.asa file to store the CDO (1.1, 1.2, 1.21) session object in an Internet Information Server (IIS) application session variable. By using the IIS session variable, you can use the same CDO (1.1, 1.2, 1.21) session from a different Active Server Pages page as long as you use the same IIS session variable name. This is very useful in complex multi-page web-based CDO (1.1, 1.2, 1.21) projects.
The included files have the following functions:
- Logon.inc: Contains functions that allow authenticated log on to the
messaging system.
- Global.asa: Sets up and cleans up the IIS session variables.
- Default.asp: Gets the user and mailbox names, creates a CDO (1.1, 1.2, 1.21) session, and stores that session in the IIS session variable "AMSession".
- Page2.asp: Uses the IIS session variable to reference the CDO (1.1, 1.2, 1.21) session object created in the Default.asp page.
Steps to Install
- Create a new directory for the ASPSess.exe on the hard drive of a
server with both IIS and Exchange Server installed. Copy the file to
that directory.
- Run ASPSess.exe. The four files listed previously are created in the
directory.
- Create a new virtual directory in IIS Management Console and set the
authentication method to NTLM (NT Challenge/Response) only.
- Make sure that the permissions for the virtual directory allow script
execution.
