In order to use SAS/CONNECT you need to have it's daemon running. This daemon attaches the script, which is optional. On a unix system the default full path is: !SASROOT/utilities/bin/sastcpd /usr/local/SAS/SASFoundation/9.2/utilities/bin/sastcpd Extended information related to the unix spawner daemon can be found at the following link: Communications Access Methods for SAS/CONNECT(R) 9.2 and SAS/SHARE(R) 9.2 To run the service on port 8801 without a script you could use the following example /usr/local/SAS/SASFoundation/9.2/utilities/bin/sastcpd -service 8801 -noscript -shell -sascmd /usr/local/SAS/SASFoundation/9.2/sas Once the daemon is running you can configure the third party tool with the server and port information to start spawning sas sessions. The link I shared above also includes example for sastcpd scripts, which are substantively different from the SAS/CONNECT signon scripts, an example of which can be found at the following link: SAS/CONNECT(R) 9.3 User's Guide This is the file which you must reference in your tools menu for the jdbc connection and it specifies things such as the address and port to connect to.
