SAS/CONNECT User's Guide

SAS/CONNECT Example

SAS/CONNECT Local Host

Specify the following statements in a local host session:

options netencryptalgorithm=rc4;
options remote=unxnode comamid=tcp;
signon;

The NETENCRYPTALGORITHM option specifies that the RC4 algorithm be used for encryption in the local host session.

SAS/CONNECT Remote Host

The following example illustrates the content of the executable file that a UNIX spawner program uses to start SAS and to specify encryption in a SAS/CONNECT remote host session.

#________________
# mystartup
#________________

#!/bin/ksh
. ~/.profile
sas dmr -noterminal -no$syntaxcheck -comamid tcp -netencryptalgorithm rc4 -netencrypt

The NETENCRYPTALGORITHM option specifies that the RC4 algorithm be used for encryption of all data that is exchanged with connecting local hosts. The NETENCRYPT option specifies that encryption is required by any local host that accesses this remote host.
