Requirements for the Tunnel Feature

The tunnel feature works with the SAS/SHARE driver for JDBC and the SAS/CONNECT driver for Java. The tunnel feature's server programs are installed on a Web server. The Web server must have
  • a directory in which CGI programs can be stored. This directory is often named cgi-bin on UNIX platforms and scripts on PC platforms. The tunnel feature's server programs are installed in this directory.
  • access to a SAS/SHARE or SAS/CONNECT server.
  • the SAS/SHARE driver for JDBC and the SAS/CONNECT driver for Java installed locally.
    Note: During installation of either driver, both drivers are automatically installed.
Before you provide programs that use the tunnel feature, make sure that the requirements for the SAS/SHARE driver for JDBC or for the SAS/CONNECT driver for Java are also met.
The tunnel feature is available for use on the following platforms:
  • AIX/6000
  • Compaq Tru64 UNIX
  • HP-UX
  • Linux
  • Solaris
  • Windows NT
  • Windows 2000
