Modify the DEFAULT record when qualifiers normally assigned to
a new user differ from the HP-supplied values. The following
qualifiers correspond to fields in the default record that are
commonly modified:
Qualifier Reason for Modification
/CLI Specifies the default Command Line Interpreter to be
used for this user. (Most OpenVMS users use the DCL
command interpreter.)
/DEVICE If most users have the same default login device,
allows you to specify a default login device for
newly-created users.
The use of a logical name is recommended.
/LGICMD Specifies the filename of a command procedure to be
invoked during the login of the user.
1. OpenVMS first looks for a systemwide login command
procedure, using the systemwide logical name
SYS$SYLOGIN. If this logical name successfully
translates to a valid file specification, the
command interpreter invokes the resulting command
procedure during login.
If the file specification does not include a
file extension, the command interpreter applies
a default value that is specific to that command
interpreter. In the case of the DCL interpreter,
the default file extension is .COM.
2. OpenVMS then looks for a LGICMD specification. If
it finds this specification, OpenVMS invokes the
command procedure.
If the LGICMD specification does not include a
file extension, the current command interpreter
applies a default value. In the case of the DCL
interpreter, the default file extension is .COM.
You can disable or override the command procedure
invocation during login by specifying qualifiers
such as /NOCOMMAND or /LGICMD at the login username
prompt.
Also see the CAPTIVE and RESTRICTED flags.
/PRIVILEGES When users are given different privileges than those
supplied by HP.
Quota When the default quotas are insufficient or
qualifiers inappropriate for mainstream work.
