Hi!
Trivial question:
from a non privileged account
$ console shutdown
No Privilege to Shutdown Console Manager
$ show symbol $status
$STATUS == "%X00000001"
Why the status is succes??
is it a bug or is it normal?
If the customer checks the status for starting others applications, how
can he bypass this problem?
Thanks
Domenico

I'm just guessing, but the program has executed normally. Your option
to return some sort of status, is valid.
The only hack I can think of at the moment is to put the
shutdown command into a DCL command procedure and redefine sys$output
to a logfile and then check the first line of the output log file for
the string "No Priviledge".
I'll put this on the list for the support team to look at, but cannot
make any promises about any changes being made for the next ECO kit.

Dave is right. The priviledge in question is one that must be granted
via the PCM config database and not a VMS priviledge. Note also that
PCM doesn't use the VMS messaging facility. All error messages are in
the code so most of the time PCM interfaces just issue their own error
message and terminate with success status.
REgs,
