CHAPTER 25
Customizing Your Handheld
Creating login scripts
A login script is a series of commands that automates logging in to a network server—for 
example, your corporate network or your ISP. A login script is associated with a specific service 
profile created in Network Preferences.
A login script is something that you are likely to receive from your system administrator if you log 
in to the corporate servers from your handheld using a phone/modem or network connection. The 
script is generally prepared by the system administrator and distributed to users who need it. It 
automates the events that must take place to establish a connection between your handheld and 
the corporate servers.
You can create login scripts by selecting commands from the Command pick list in the Login 
Script dialog box. Some commands, such as Send, require you to supply additional information. If 
the command requires additional info, a field appears to the right of the command where you can 
enter the info.

You can also 
create login scripts with a 
text editor on your 
desktop computer. Create 
a file with the extension 
PNC, and then install the 
file on your handheld 
using palmOne™ Quick 
Install.
Did You Know?
Your login scripts can 
also use non-ASCII and 
literal characters.
