The canonical doc is [1], but that's mostly pre-IIS7 detail. With 7, it's
fairly likely you don't have the filter configured at the global level or
for reasons I couldn't tell you it has to be configured at the per-site
level and it's not configured there. Assuming the site is properly mapped
anyway.

My experience with newer versions is that the filter only works per-site
and has to be explicitly added on every one.
