@RenzoFalconieri ,

 

The best way to test a connection to your X11 server is to run xclock application. If xclock work, you should be able to start the SAS Management Console.

Thanks,

how can run xclock command? run without parameters?

Make sure the xorg-x11-apps package installed on the server. If yes, you should be able to run xclock application without any options (of course if you have a valid connection to your X11 server).

the variable is empty after run command you suggest

Then you do not have the X Windows server running on your desktop and/or X11 Forwarding enabled.

Edit: or X11 Forwarding is not enabled for the SSH daemon on your server.

Very kind of you to follow me!
i find under "MobaXterm Configuration - X11 - X11 server display mode":
"Multiwindow mode" . Trasparent X11 server integrated in Windows Desktop

You need to make sure that "X11 Forwarding" is enabled in the session parameters of your session (it is not in the Mobaxterm configuration), and for the SSH server(daemon) on your SAS server. In UNIX servers, this is done in  /etc/ssh/sshd_config

Thanks KurtBremser,

I don't know how to resolve.
I cannot modify /etc/ssh/sshd_config because only system administrator can do it.

Then have him or her do it. X11 Forwarding should be enabled on all SSH servers that have administration tools with a GUI.

cd /opt/sas/SASHome/SASManagementConsole/9.4/
./sasmc
Or simply /opt/sas/SASHome/SASManagementConsole/9.4/sasmc
