SAS Studio, local admin rights

[Indegene]

I'm new to SAS Administration, I'm using windows authentication, users logging in via the browser need to be local admins on that server, is there a way I could change this?

Hello @Indegene,

of course there is 🙂 You need to grant them the Local (or Group) Security Policy "Log on as Batch Job" as with any other Workspace server session. And, of course, read and/or write permissions to the relevant folders.

Please let us know how it goes!

Kind regards,

Juan

Thanks Juan for your input, but like I said, I'm "very new" to SAS so I'm not sure how to do this.  If you have any other suggestions on the approach let me know.  I'll continue reading on the link you sent me, thanks you very much.

Hello @Indegene,

no problem with that 🙂 The procedure is on the link, or even more simple, here: https://www.brooksnet.com/faq/granting-logon-as-batch-privilege

If you have all your SAS users in a Local group or an Active Directory group, just add this group to the "Log on as Batch Job" Policy and you will be ready.

AWESOME Juan!
