OpenVMS Group-wide Login Profiles
This sample code was the subject of
“”,
the September 30, 2010
installment of The OpenVMS Consultant,
a column on OpenVMS computing hosted by
OpenVMS.org.
This example provides an example of a skeleton group-wide login profile
under OpenVMS. Group-wide login profiles provide a useful middle
ground between the overall system-wide login profile and individual
user profiles (LOGIN.COM). The code which must be inserted into the
system-wide login profile (SYS$MANAGER:SYLOGIN.COM) is also provided.
The three DCL command files comprising this example may be
downloaded from this page. This files make use
of a number of techniques, some of which have been featured in previous
installments of The OpenVMS Consultant. For your convenience, the
files have been packaged in a ZIP archive.
The downloadable ZIP archive contains three example command files:
GROUPLOGIN.COM |
An example group-wide login command file.
|
SYLOGIN_INSERT.COM |
Code segment to be inserted at the end of SYS$MANAGER:SYLOGIN.COM to
test for, and if present, invoke the group-wide login profile.
