Our system-wide login.com procedure does a variety of site-dependant things
for users.  We bypass it entirely for network logins (if f$mode() .eqs.
"NETWORK" then $exit).  This is nice and quick for remote file access, and
it avoids problems with user login.com files doing things like $INQUIRE;
however it means that system-wide symbols and user generated symbols and
logicals are not available.  What do other people do?  Any comments?
