How to Enable SSO
You can enable the entire Enterprise Single Sign-On (SSO) system by using either the MMC Snap-In or the command line.
After you run the enabling command, there is a short delay before all Single Sign-On Servers are enabled, as each polls the SSO database for the latest global information.
If you want to configure affiliate applications and mappings in the SSO system, you must also create an affiliate application. After an SSO affiliate administrator creates an affiliate application, an application administrator can make changes to it, and application users (end-users) can create their own mappings. For more information, see Managing Affiliate Applications and Managing User Mappings.
