How to list what modules users are in

[dbdinc]

Is there an "easy" way, in SAS, to get a listing of what users are using which modules? In other words, how do I find which users are registered for Web Studio for Reports, what users are registered for MS Add-in, what users are registered for Information Map and so on?

If anyone can help, I sure would appreciate it, especially since I have only been using SAS for six weeks! Thanks in advance!

Run the Proc Setinit on each user's work station. The results list the available 'engines'.

proc setinit;
run;

I hope that this helps you.

klaz2002,

Thanks for replying.....however, is there a way I can do what I want remotely? I work for a college district that has multiple campuses spread over quite a lot of ground (25 miles from one campus to another), not to mention also having about 150 users.

Can Management Consoole be utilized maybe?

You could write a dos script that will load when the machine starts. This script could call a SAS program that runs the proc setinit and dumps the results to a log file that you have access to.

We do this here for corporate updates. All machines here have a startup batch file named initialcompany.bat that they run. If we don't want it to run we simply copy a blank file with that name into the folder that e/o accesses and it 'skips' that file. When we need to have the machines update some software (not only SAS) we just rename the file to the proper script.

Hope that this has helped you.

Hello again, and thanks again! That sounds like an interesting possibility..... however, in the college system I work in, it's like pulling teeth to get to the various campuses and various users machines to stick on something like a dos script, as well as getting through our techies and security folks. I'll keep hammering away, though.

Thanks again...it's appreciated!
