The site may use the LGI$ICB_AUTOLOGIN callback routine to determine whether the standard OpenVMS autologin functionality applies for this terminal. Format LGI$ICB_AUTOLOGIN
1 – Returns
OpenVMS usage:value type: longword (unsigned) access: write only mechanism: by value True (logical 1) if autologin enabled; 0 otherwise.
2 – Arguments
None.
3 – Description
If the standard OpenVMS autologin functionality applies, the callback routine returns the user name to the site program using the standard argument vector so that the autologin process may continue. The autologin determination is made before the site prompts for the user passwords. The callback routine is applicable only for interactive character-cell logins. NOTE Standard OpenVMS policy uses autologin only on directly connected or LAT connected character-cell terminals. The LGI$ICB_AUTOLOGIN callback routine checks the automatic login file (ALF) SYS$SYSTEM:SYSALF.DAT to make the determination. A DECwindows callout can include a method for doing a DECwindows autologin. In that case, the callout routine should set the autologin flag to true before returning control to LOGINOUT.
4 – Condition Values Returned
None.
