Hello,
I would like to create a sastest user that is not on a network domain. I am able to create a local user on a single host machine with installed SASMeta and SASApp servers and able to connect and run programs using this sastest user.
However, when I try to create similar user on a multiple hosts (SASMeta and SASApp are separated) system, I am only able to establish connections to SASMeta but not to SASApp.
The error message I am getting trying to connect to SASApp:
Connection refused. No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it. This usually results from trying to connect to a service that is inactive on the foreign host - i.e. one with no server application running.
Steps taken:
1.Created SAS users group and sastest user on both hosts, the user group was set to log on as batch process (needed for applications/program testing).
2.Added sastest user to SAS environment.
3.Tried to add read metadata permission to PUBLIC, following this article: https://support.sas.com/kb/40/920.html error persisted.
Is it possible to create a local user that is not on a domain that would be able to access all sas servers?
Thank you.
The problem was resolved by granting read meta data permission for Sas trusted user on SASapp server.
The object spawner is running and I am able to test connection using this sastest user and domain users. Moreover, I am able to connect to object spawner too using the mentioned two users. However, I am not able to connect to SAS work space server with neither user. It seems that the issue is not this is not with windows authentication.
Are your domain users connecting OK? Can you remotely logon to the SAS application server via a remote desktop connection using sastest? If this works then try starting a SAS session on the app server by typing sas on a command line (I'm assuming your OS is Windows).
The problem was resolved by granting read meta data permission for Sas trusted user on SASapp server.
