There is also a way to 'disable' the ';parm=-1' feature of 'hello ..' by
using sysgen. The MPE help states:
...
ciparm The Command Interpreter parameter number you wish
to use. If you are using the MPE/iX Command
Interpreter, the numbers accepted are:
...
-1 UDCs are not cataloged. The CI banner and the
welcome message are not displayed. Invoking this
level requires System Manager (SM) capability.
To prevent users from bypassing logon UDCs, you
can enforce logon UDCs via the MISC configurator
in SYSGEN.
If a user without SM capability uses -1, the system
substitutes a parameter value of 0 without
generating an error message.
