Error: "Cookie rejected. Cookie failed MD5 test." in Windows event log
When using RSA ACE/Agent 4.3 with Microsoft IIS, user receives a successful authentication message, but is redirected back to login screen because of bad cookie:
Cookie rejected. Cookie failed MD5 test. Username: ts06200. ***The permissions have been set for registry key "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\w3svc"
***IIS/NT Server is multi-homed and is set to use the correct interface.
The cause is that the web browser or the sdiis.dll is set to run in separate memory space
1. Navigate to Start Menu --> Programs --> Windows NT Option Pack>Microsoft Internet Information Server --> Internet Service Manager (or equivalent path)
2. After the MMC opens --> Open Internet Information Server -->"hostname" --> Default Web Site --> {scan down to sdiis.dll}
3. Right click sdiis.dll and select Properties
4. Select the Virtual Directory tab and look for the Application Settings block
