Running with a Secure Application Server

If your Xplore application runs with a secure Application Server, then you must add the following statement to the program that starts the Application Server:

request login=sample.weblogin.sas;

Your program would then look something like the following:

proc appsrv auth=host;
.
.
.
request login=sample.weblogin.sas;
.
.
.
run;

When a user starts the Xplore application, the following page appears requesting a user name and password:

After the user submits the user name and password and is authorized, Xplore runs normally.

You can configure your secure Application Server so that authorization to the server expires after a certain amount of time. For more information about setting an expiration time, see the TIMEOUT parameter of the SESSION statement for the APPSRV procedure.
