Examples of Login Scripts
User Login Script
Table 5-10 shows an example of a user login script for user Mary. The user
login script executes after the container and profile login scripts have
executed.
PCCOMPATIBLE
EXIT “NMENU WORK”
Stops the profile login script and sends the
user into a menu program called WORK.
EXIT also prevents any user login scripts
from executing.
If you want a user login script to execute
after the profile login script, put these lines
at the end of the user login script instead.
(DOS workstations with the machine name
IBM_PC do not need the PCCOMPATIBLE
line.)
