Biztalk Error Message - SSO masterkey not backed up

After installation of Microsoft Biztalk 2004, following error message gets written to the eventlog:

"The master secret has not been backed up. If you lose the master secret all the information stored in the SSO system will be lost permanently and your systems may fail to work correctly. Please use the SSO admin tools to back up your master secret."

To get rid of it, the SSO master key must be backed up using following command (assuming a default installation):

cd C:\Program Files\Common Files\Enterprise Single Sign-On\
ssoconfig -backupsecret filename.bak

The program will request a password and a reminder phrase for the backup file. After the file is created the error message should be gone.

I hope this blog can be useful to you and save some time in searching for a solution to this error.
