This is very >annoying, because our users should'nt log in on the boot server of course. MX uses VMS MAIL for delivery of messages, and it's VMS MAIL that produces those broadcasts. It sounds to me like you don't have the MAIL$SYSTEM_FLAGS logical defined correctly on your boot node. It should be defined as 3 or 7. See chapter 9 of the Mail Utility Manual (part of the VMS doc set) for further information on MAIL$SYSTEM_FLAGS. -Matt -- Matthew Madison | madison@tgv.com | +1 408 427 4366 TGV, Inc. | 603 Mission Street | Santa Cruz, CA 95060 USA
