Darran,
    Here's what you would submit to connect using SAS/Connect:

/***  SPECIFY IP ADDRESS OF SAS SERVER ***/
%let rsession=130.140.94.55;    /* You need to know this or preferably the
alias for this */

/***  SPECIFY TCP FOR COMMUNICATION ACCESS METHOD  ***/
options comamid=tcp;    /* this is for TCIP com access method, what you
usually use */
options remote=rsession;     /* this is you session name */

/***  POINT TO SCRIPT FILE ON THE CLIENT MACHINE  ***/
filename rlink "C:\Program Files\SAS
Institute\SAS\V8\CONNECT\SASLINK\tcpwin.scr";
/* this script doesn't need any modifications at all  */

/***  ESTABLISH A REMOTE CONNECTION  ***/
signon;

If you're running SAS/Share, you need to do a few more things but this
should get you connected.
