When you attempt to open SAS Enterprise Guide projects or save them to SAS Folders, an error similar to the following might occur, with a SAS host name:
The remote name could not be resolved: 'hostname.xx.sas.com'

------------------------------ End of Technical Information ------------------------------
The problem occurs because the SAS Content server cannot be accessed by the SAS Enterprise Guide Client. The SAS host name erroneously appears
in the error because of a bug in the software. The bug is corrected in version 5.1 of SAS Enterprise Guide.
