SAS/CONNECT 9.2 Driver for Java |
The information in the tunnel feature's configuration file controls access to remote SAS sessions. The configuration file is required; it allows the administrator to limit which machines are accessed and through which ports and client machines they are accessed.
For the SAS/CONNECT driver for Java, the configuration file also controls which user IDs are allowed to connect to the SAS server and the commands that those users are allowed to use to start the remote SAS session. Without the configuration file, there would be no limits on the commands that users could execute during the process of starting SAS.
To use a configuration file, the administrator creates the
shrcgi.cfg file, specifies any options
that are needed, and stores it on the Web server in
the directory specified by the environment variable,
SHRCGI_CFG. If you have not set SHRCGI_CFG
, the
Message Router looks for the configuration file in your
CGI directory.
Note: The Message Router reads the configuration file each time the communication session is started with a particular host.
The shrcgi.cfg file included with the tunnel feature archive is a configuration file template. You must modify it to specify configuration information that is specific to your site. Do not attempt to use the template file as the final configuration file because it does not include your specific host and port names.
