Login Script Commands and Variables
This section describes the commands you can use in a login script. The
commands are presented in alphabetical order.
Syntax conventions for login script commands, as shown in Table 5-3, are
the same as those for workstation text utilities, with one exception: some
login script commands must be preceded by the # symbol.
Following is an example of the syntax for the MAP login script command:
MAP [option] drive:=drive:|path
The command syntax is described in Table 5-3.
Table 5-3 Command Syntax Conventions
Convention Explanation
MAP Words in uppercase letters are keywords that must be included in the
command and spelled exactly as shown. However, it doesn’t matter if
you type them in uppercase or lowercase letters.
[ ] Square brackets indicate that the enclosed item is optional.
| A vertical bar means you can use either the item to the left of the bar or
the item to the right, but not both. In the previous MAP example, you
can enter either the drive letter or a complete path.
drive Words in italics are variables. Replace variables with information
specific to your task.
[option] Options or parameters for each command are listed with the command.
Options and parameters can often be abbreviated.
<Enter> Angle brackets indicate a key you should press.
[[ ]] Nested square brackets indicate that all enclosed items are optional.
However, if you use the items within the innermost brackets, you must
also use the items within the outer brackets.
