3279.0. "map_alt_id - What is is it?, Options?" by ZPOVC::ANDREWWAITES (Do what it takes, take what it does) Wed Jul 01 1992 10:44

    Hi,
    	MCC_RESOURCE.DAT has a couple of lines in it that look like:
    
    	mcc_pml.map_alt_id.node4	= 1
    
    	The copy in DECW$SYSTEM_DEFAULTS has some explanation that
    indicates that this (maybe) determines what is used for the map label.
    Is this the function?
    
    	If so, I'd really like to use just the last element of my DNS names
    for my terminal servers..
    
    	.i.e. instead of CGIN.SIN.CMAPS1  , use CMAPS1
    
    	Is this at all possible?
    
    thanks,
    Andrew

    The altid support lets you specify which identifier attribute 
    to display under the icon.   
    
    The functionality you want is "display last simplename only" for 
    fullname datatype attributes. This is on the v1.3 wish list.
