Hi Jaap, Thanks for replying. Yes, my personal account is vellis. These are also my AD credentials. An account exists in Metadata which uses a Back-End configuration to authenticate with LDAP. I have also created internal accounts in both environments for myself, and have tried running the autoexec in prod, which runs successfully, but fails in test. Prod: Test: 10 /*password = _Prompt_;*/ 11 options metaserver="saststmds.moh.govt.nz" /*10.130.21.141*/ 12 13 metaport=8562 14 metarepository=Foundation 15 metauser="Vinnie Ellis@saspw" 16 metapass=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX 17 18 ; 19 signon server="SASApp - Connect Server"; ERROR: ERROR: No logins found. ERROR: Retrieving login information based on AuthenticationDomain from the SAS Metadata Server failed. ERROR: Unable to retrieve the SAS/CONNECT server definition "SASAPP - CONNECT SERVER". ERROR: Remote signon to SASAPP - CONNECT SERVER canceled. 20 /*password = _Prompt_;*/ This is what I see in the ConnectSpawner_saststcts.log. I am pretty sure I have checked this previously but haven't seen these Permission Denied error which are concerning. I have checked the internet and forums but haven't been able to find anything useful regarding this error. 08.45.58.99: Copyright (C) 2002-2011, SAS Institute Inc., Cary, NC, USA.

I have tried running the signon command in the classic approach but get the following errors for both environments... 4 OPTIONS COMAMID=TCP; 5 %LET MYNODE=saspd1mds.moh.govt.nz 7551; 6 SIGNON MYNODE; NOTE: Remote signon to MYNODE commencing (SAS Release 9.03.01M1P110211). ERROR: A communication subsystem partner link setup request failure has occurred. ERROR: The connection was refused.

ERROR: A communication subsystem partner link setup request failure has occurred. ERROR: The connection was refused. ERROR: Remote signon to MYNODE canceled. I'm not the best with SAS code so am a little unsure how to use serverv with the classic signon command with serverv. I did try it using my autoexec and got the following... 50 options metaserver="saststmds.moh.govt.nz" /*10.130.21.141*/ 51 52 metaport=8562 53 metarepository=Foundation 54 metauser="Vinnie Ellis@saspw" 55 metapass=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX 56 57 ; 58 signon serverv="SASApp - Connect Server"; NOTE: Server= SASApp - Connect Server Remote Session ID= local ServerComponentID= A5586FBU.AV00000E Remote Host= saststcts.moh.govt.nz Communication Protocol=TCP Port= 7552 Prompt= No SpawnerCommand= /opt/sas/sas93/config/Lev2/SASApp/ConnectServer/ConnectServer.sh AuthDomain= DefaultAuth LoginName= Login.sasdemo.77 Wait= Yes SignonWait= Yes Status= Yes Notify= No 59 /*password = _Prompt_;*/ I will have a read of the link you sent regarding the security configuration for UNIX environments now, to see if that may help. Thanks again, Vinnie
