3400.0. "Allow a single application only" by FRSCS::ERLEMANN (Bedman strikes back) Thu Sep 27 1990 04:40

    Hi,
    
    another question about the 'captive' question. I know, there are
    several topics about that (especially #564 seems to be valuable).
    But these tips/hints don't work as I and perhaps the others suppose. 
    
    So I think that it *must* be possible to login in the DECw login mask
    and with having specified in a certain login procedure (DECW$LOGIN) the
    execution of an image/appl the only thing that should happen is the
    application. No SessMgr, no DECterm, no FileView should come up. And
    after exiting the application, the login mask should reappear. These
    are my wishes.
    
    With trying the DECW$LOGIN.COM in #564.6 the clock came up and after
    quitting it, nothing more happened. The root window remained in empty
    state. Yes, I have all privs - authorized and default.
    
    See this example below:
    
    $ set noon
    $ run sys$system:decw$clock
    $loop:
    $ p = f$pid(i)
    $ if p .eqs. "" then logout
    $ image = f$parse("''f$getjpi(p,"imagname")'",,,"name",)
    $ if image .nes. "DECW$WINMGR" then goto loop
    $ stop/id='p'
    $ run sys$system:decw$startlogin                !needs priv's
    $ logout
    $ exit 1
    
                                                           
    
    So, is there any possibility to manage this?

I think you need to find out which logout path is being taken.  I'll bet you
are failing the image match somehow (just a guess)...
