    "Do you want to use a default account for the 'application name'
    application?"

    The procedure creates the DECnet-Plus default application objects
    to include in the application database. You have the option of
    creating default user accounts for the following applications:
    FAL, CML, MAIL, VPM, MIRROR, and PHONE.

    This prompt is displayed for the standard OpenVMS applications
    most commonly used. The applications are:

    o  File Access Listener

       File Access Listener (FAL) is an image that provides
       authorized access to the file system of a DECnet node on
       behalf of processes executing on any DECnet node in the
       network. FAL communicates with the initiating node by means
       of the Data Access Protocol (DAP). If you want an account set
       up or used for FAL, answer YES.

    o  CMIP Management Listener

       CMIP Management Listener (CML) is the DECnet-Plus management
       module that implements the Common Management Information
       Protocol (CMIP). It is a utility that enables the system to
       respond to remote management commands. If you want an account
       set up or used for CML, answer YES.

    o  MAIL

       If you want to use the OpenVMS MAIL utility, answer YES.

    o  VMScluster Performance Monitor

       If the system is to be a member of a VMScluster, you should
       answer YES to this question. An account is needed for VPM
       (VMScluster Performance Monitor) for your system to support
       the OpenVMS Monitor Utility command MONITOR CLUSTER. Answer NO
       if the system is to be a non-cluster end system.

    o  MIRROR

       MIRROR is used for particular forms of loopback testing. If
       you want to use MIRROR, answer YES.

    o  PHONE

       The PHONE utility allows users on the same or different
       OpenVMS systems to communicate interactively. Unlike MAIL,
       where messages are received and held for your attention, PHONE
       requires an immediate reply to a call (connection request).
       The reply makes the connection and the interactive exchange
       of messages begins. If you intend to use the OpenVMS PHONE
       utility, answer YES.
