OverviewĪs of kernel 720 rfcexec.exe and startrfc.exe are no longer delivered together with kernel, however you want to use any of these programs. As a result of the recent Covid-19 pandemic and changing work practices, many users need access to SAP systems from remote locations (such as homes, hotels, coffee shops and such).The purpose of this is to show you how to download, decompress, install NW RFC SDK, and set enverioment variable step by step. However, some customers do not want the administrative burden of VPNs.Īs a result, SAP customers have realised the need to facilitate access to corporate systems from outside the corporate network. How do you allow flexible and easy remote access whilst still ensuring security? Providing access to remote users without a VPN poses a security challenge. This blog provides a method for this, it also goes further in that it provides a method to ensure that only the required users are able to connect, and that security is enforced by the back-end SAP system. The blog assumes a scenario where SAP systems are hosted in AWS in a private subnet. However, the same general principles should still apply for other Cloud service providers. The scenario also does not consider or allow for Single-Sign-On (SSO) access. As such, users will still require basic authentication (User ID and password) when logging in to the SAP back-end systems.
