If you need to display the login link on the portal after a user has logged out, Angela has posted how to do it here:

Allowing user to publish content that everyone can automatically see in the portal

Doing some research on the new SAS Addin for Microsoft Outlook 4.3, to trouble shout an issue at a customer site (more on that later) when I came across this post on the SAS Support site.
It describes a way to change the default content storage options so that when a user saves a document vis the SAS Addin for Microsoft Office, the conent is automatically available via the SAS portal.
I am a great fan of creating content once and making it easily available to as many users as is useful, via their preferred channel. This is a great technique to help with that approach.
Is your Portal Content playing peek-a-boo in 9.2

Saw this interesting SAS Support note “Problem Note 36697: Group member cannot see shared group content in SAS® Information Delivery Portal“ referenced in a discussion on the SAS Support Discussion forums.
It seems a change has been made to make the SAS Portal pages load faster in SAS 9.2 (good!)
But the trick for your players is that the users Portal group membership is cached.
What this means is if you change the users groups, for example add them to a new group so they have access to additional content, the cache needs to be refreshed or they will never see the content.
The support note outlines a couple of options for refreshing the cache.
Deleting Channel Content in SAS 9.1 – Begone damn spot!

We are doing some work to enable Channels and WRS report scheduling in our SAS 9.1.3 environment.
Its a complete mare!
One of the issues we have struck is the inability to delete any packages you have published to a channel. They just stay there forever.
In SAS 9.2 you get a utility that lets you delete these packages:
SAS 9.2 Using the Package Clean-Up Utility to Remove Packages
Luckily the friendly chaps at SAS tech Support mentioned that there is a SAS Toolpool entry for 9.1.3 that does teh same function.
So if you need to delete Archived Packages in SAS 9.1.3 channels, then as your friendly SAS dude for the toolpool entry.
Deploying Portlets in SAS 9.2

The place you put your portlet files to automatically deploy them has changed in SAS 9.2.
In SAS 9.1 (windows) you used to place them here:
<sas-install-dir>\Program Files\SAS\Web\Portal2.0.1\DeployedPortlets
In SAS 92 (Windows) you need to place them here:
<sas-config-dir>\Lev1\Web\Applications\SASPortlets4.2\Deployed
SAS Portal 4.2 open access (Public Kiosk part duex, the return of the Public Kiosk)

I posted earlier about the removal of the Public Kiosk in SAS 9.2 / Portal 4.2.
All the feedback I got stated that they turned off the Public Kiosk in SAS 9.1.3 / Portal 2.x as a matter of course.
Just noticed a SAS Tech support notice “Enabling unchallenged access to content in SAS® Information Delivery Portal 4.2” which outlines how to allow access to the portal without the need to login.
So obviously a few people still wanted it.
Do you use the public Kiosk page in SAS Portal 9.1.3?

Angela’s post on the changes in SAS Portal 4.2 (9.2) called Favorite things about SAS Information Delivery Portal 4.2 highlights the fact that the public kiosk is no longer available in the 9.2 SAS Portal.
A lot of the customers we have worked with have disabled the Public Kiosk page in 9.1.3
So I am wondering how much of an issue it disappearing is going to be?
So tell me do you use the public kiosk page and do you really need it?
