961.0. "Application Programmer vs the DW session manager(1st round)..." by EVOAI2::DAN_M (Maya DAN) Fri Jun 16 1989 03:47

    One more question, please!
    We know how to start an application automatically when a user
    loggin.But the session manager application remains active allowing
    the user to do a lot of unlikeable and not-wanted actions.
    How to desactivate the sesion manager letting our application run
    alone?
    best regards
    Maya DAN

961.1Two options...17305::WESTI'm just visiting this planet.Fri Jun 16 1989 11:3817
  The way I see it there are basically two options open to you.  You can
either stop the Session Manager process or use resource names to 'deselect'
any/some/all options from the Session Manager.

  The process is usually the one that has your username as its process name
on VMS.

  I've posted a note somewhere here that has a list of resource names for
the Session Manager.  From my understanding, these resource names are not
supported and may change with future releases.  The resource names can go
in either the DECW$SM_GENERAL.DAT or the DECW$XDEFAULTS.DAT files.  I
prefer the XDEFAULTS file since this too is not *really* supported.
