On startup, the DECNET_REGISTER utility always attempts to execute an initialization command file if one is present. This is most useful for pre-setting the values to use for command parameter defaults. DECNET_REGISTER checks for an initialization file using a default name of: SYS$LOGIN:DECNET_REGISTER.INI If this file is found, it is automatically executed as a command file containing a series of DECNET_REGISTER commands. If a different file name is to be used, specify the file name using the logical definition: $ DEFINE DECNET_REGISTER_INIT initialization-file-name If this logical definition exists, #(NETREG_NAME) uses the specified file name, rather than the default file name.
