Customizing the User Environment

Examples of Login Scripts

REM Mary needs access to FORMS while she’s on the

REM troubleshooting team. Remove the driver

mapping REM when Mary is reassigned.

This remark is intended as a reminder to

the person who created the login script.

This remark isn’t displayed on the user’s

screen. (Because the remark is several

lines long, each line starts with REM.)

SET WP=”/u-mjr/b-5” Sets Mary’s environment variables for her

word-processing application.

SET USR=”mrichard” Sets Mary’s username (mrichard) for the

electronic mail program.

#CAPTURE Q=FAST_Q NB TI=10 NFF Executes the CAPTURE utility so Mary

can print from non-network applications.

PCCOMPATIBLE

EXIT “NMENU TRAINING”

Stops the user login script and sends the

user into a menu program called

TRAINING. (DOS stations with the

machine name IBM_PC don’t need the

PCCOMPATIBLE line.)
