Hello,

Is it possible to have both a Custom Login Page and a Single Sign On setup?

This way if i wanted to access different namespaces at any time i could with SSO taking over to the default namespace.

Yep,

I've done it in IIS.

have 2 gateway components installed; one for SSO and one for non-SSO.

Have either 2 websites, or (perhaps better) 1 website with 2 versions of the ibmcognos virtual directory under it (set physical paths to the respective SSO and non-SSO <C10install>\webcontent locations).  Configure the Cognos Gateway in Cognos Configuration accordingly. eg. for SSO:
Gateway URI: http://myexamplesite.net:80/ibmcognossso/cgi-bin/cognosisapi.dll
for non-SSO:
Gateway URI: http://myexamplesite.net:80/ibmcognos/cgi-bin/cognosisapi.dll

Apply Windows Authentication to the virtual directory for the SSO gateway (ibmcognossso above).  Apply Anonymous authentication to the virtual directory for the non-SSO gateway (ibmcognos above).
