Try this:

WAITFOR 'Username:', 120 seconds;
/*input 'Username:';*/
type 'userid' CR;

substituting your actual id for userid.  I've used this successfully in both
unix and vms environments.

Subject: help with SAS/Connect script from Unix to VMS


I am trying to connect from Unix to VMS using SAS/Connect. The connect
script has the following code which displays a prompt for the userid to
be entered:

WAITFOR 'Username:', 120 seconds;
input 'Username:';
type CR;

However I would like to 'hard code' the userid in the script so it
doesn't need to be entered each time and the prompt does not appear.

Please can anyone tell me how I can do this.

Thanks
