Did I add that CA Certificate to the SAS Trusted CA Bundle?
Sometimes I forget whether I’ve added our internal site root and intermediate CA certificates to the Trusted CA Bundle that SAS® Software applications use. Sometimes I also forget the command I can use to find out whether I did! 😉 As is ofte…

IWA with SAS 9.4 M2 on Linux
I’ve just finished a challenging but very rewarding experience configuring a SAS 9.4 M2 platform on Linux to use Integrated Windows Authentication (IWA), for both server and mid-tiers ….. without using Quest Authentication Services. The SAS platform has supported IWA on Linux since SAS 9.3 but until recently has only supported it when you “purchase, […]
