Trusted User
|
|
The metadata server
allows a privileged account to act on behalf of other users (trusting
that those users have already been properly authenticated).
|
|
|
To the metadata server
from the object spawner, the OLAP server, SAS Web applications (if
Web authentication is used), and batch report processes.
|
|
|
Supports the optional
Web authentication configuration. Enables the OLAP server and the
object spawner to impersonate each requesting user on connections
to the metadata server. Enables batch reporting processes to connect
to the metadata server under their identities.

It is important to protect
this privileged account.

In a new deployment, the trustedUsers.txt file lists
one account that serves as the trusted user for the entire deployment.
CAUTION:
Do not
add regular users to the trustedUsers.txt file.
The trusted user is
a privileged service identity that can act on behalf of all other
users.
Note: The trustedUsers.txt file
is in your equivalent of
SAS/Config/Lev1/SASMeta/MetadataServer/.
