Several people have posted the correct solution:
The logical symbol SYS$SYLOGIN should not translate to a filename that
has an extension (filetype?) on it; i.e., it should be
define sys$sylogin sys$manager:sylogin
So, for DCL users, you have sys$manager:sylogin.com, for MCR users,
sys$manager:sylogin.cmd, and for DEC/Shell, sys$manager:sylogin. (there's
a dot on the end of that name).
Similarly, the UAF file should have LGICMD = LOGIN (with no extension).
The DEC/Shell documentation DOES point out that this works fine if your
sys$login:login. file says ". .profile" (assuming you want to use .profile
as your startup dot file).
Thanks all,
Mike Khaw
