Subject:      EG Server side questions

All -

I just came across this post on
http://support.sas.com/ctx/samples/index.jsp?sid=816&tab=details and
thought "this would be the magic code I need if I can run this on the SAS
server"!

We're running EG 3.0 but some of our users have the thin client. For now,
our goal is to create some reports daily and monthly (html and pdf). These
reports should be generated automatically and be posted to various
directories.
We've had no trouble creating the reports on various servers:
ods pdf body='\\server1\folder1\folder2\fname1.pdf';
ods html body='\\server2\folder1\folder2\fname1.htm';

1) But we're having trouble creating the report on an internal web server
that's running Microsoft Sharepoint. Are there any changes/configurations
we need? Do we need to enable ftp services on the server?

2) Is it possible to get my automated processes to run on the server? SEG
automation seems to be geared towards the pc - can EG trigger a batch
process on the server?

3) On the subject of email notification, our users running EG on their pc
can send out emails through SAS. Others cannot. Is there a work around for
this?

What are our options? Do we need to purchase additional SAS or other
products for this functionality?

Many thanks for your help.
