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. You will install the tunnel feature's server programs 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, be sure that the requirements for the SAS/SHARE driver for JDBC or for the SAS/CONNECT driver for Java are also met.
