Hi,
From Folder shortcut file explorer, by default you can see all files located under the actual folder. Now if a user try to open .RTF files, SAS studio actually download that file onto user's local machine, which we want to avoid.
So, Is there any way/setup such that we can restrict some files from the explorer view? Like I want to restrict .RTF files from the view so that user can not download/open .RTF file.
Thanks!
@Reeza Yes, that's true.
Basically we want to avoid downloading of files at local level. User can go to actual server to view the file(s).
What OS is your SAS servers running on? I suspect this will have to be controlled at the OS level.
@SASKiwi, we are running SAS on Linux server.
@samir_par - I will defer to the Unix experts on the Community in that case.
You can request your Linux Admin to deny read access to the folder contents.
acl should be enabled on that file system and rules set.
This is something that has to be done by the Unix Admin only.
