My memory on this is a little hazy and I am unfamiliar with the DEC/Shell,
but this should work:

The problem has come up before with users who wanted to have MCR as their
default CLI. The trick is to define SYS$SYLOGIN without specifying a file type.
For example, "DEFINE/SYSTEM SYS$SYLOGIN SYS$MANAGER:SYLOGIN" (not SYS$MANAGER:
SYLOGIN.COM). Each CLI then supplies its default command file type. DCL users
get SYLOGIN.COM and MCR users get SYLOGIN.xxx (damn if I can remember what it
is).

Anyway, I would expect that DEC/Shell will have its own default file type,
maybe null (i.e. SYLOGIN.).

Hope this helps.
