Communications Access Methods for SAS/CONNECT and SAS/SHARE Software |
You must have an entry in the SERVICES file for each of the following services, as necessary:
Note: If you have access to a UNIX system, see the
services
(4) manual page for more information about this file.
The location of the SERVICES file is based on the platform. For example,
the UNIX services file is located at
/etc/services
.
An excerpt of a SERVICES file is shown on the next page. Here is an explanation for each field.
spawner
for the UNIX spawner
program. See Starting the UNIX Spawner Program
for information about invoking the UNIX spawner. You will need the TELNET
service when signing on to any host that does not use a PC or a UNIX spawner
program.
You will also use the service name as the value for the REMOTE= option or in the SIGNON statement to perform a remote host sign on. See the appropriate platform and access method chapter in this book for information about the REMOTE= option.
For SAS/SHARE, you will specify the service name in the SERVER= option in the PROC SERVER statement when creating a server and in the PROC OPERATE and LIBNAME statements when accessing a server. See the appropriate platform and access method chapter in this book for information about specifying the SERVER= option.
When using the DOMAIN server, you must also specify its service name in the SERVICES file.
telnet
and
tcp
are examples of protocol names.
Note: In this context, the service name
and the protocol name are the same only for
telnet
.
