When a user logs in, additional parameters can be entered that the LOGIN utility passes to the login
script. The utility then substitutes these parameters for any %n variables in the login script. These
variables are replaced in order by the parameters the user entered when logging in.
The %0 variable is replaced by the name of the NetWare server entered in the Login dialog box, and
%1 is replaced by the user's fully distinguished login name. The remaining variables change,
depending on what the user types when executing the LOGIN utility. The %n variables must precede
all command line options.
The
SHIFT (page 54)
command allows you to change the order in which these %n variables are
substituted.
