3289.0. "DECwindows Automatic Login on bootup" by IOOSRV::COLVIN () Fri Aug 31 1990 01:11

I am working on an application that needs to be able to have a VAXstation
be automatically logged in when is boots up.  Is there some way to provide
this function?  The remote login is not good enough because the application
needs to be able to use the screen on the workstation and so far I have not
found a way to use remote logins to take over the screen.  Any ideas?

	You need to modify DECW$STARTAPPS to inhibit the "digital" login screen, then submit BATCH jobs (only way that I found of doing it) on behalf of your desired username that run the session manager and the window manager. See note 3022.* or send mail if you need example .COM files /Chris.
