Does anyone know how to automate the SET HOST "nodename" Command in
a command file so that it automatically signs on to a node? I need to
run a command
file that will sign on to another workstation and run a program from
that system.

Thanks...

I did it once via Kermit and DCL using several procedures to create a
pseudo-terminal and run a script via that. Let me know if you need more
details.

  I will assume that these nodes are not members if the same cluster.

  I would not use SET HOST for this.

  For how this can be resolved, please see the OpenVMS FAQ sections 
  DCL8 and (for a somewhat more primitive version) MGMT12.  Also see 
  the OpenVMS Ask The Wizard area (www.openvms.compaq.com/wizard) 
  topics 159, 798, 1910, etc.  Also see the DCL command SUBMIT/REMOTE.
