     In order to create group logical name definitions at system startup you 
can use either:

$ SUBMIT /USER=GROUP47 SYS$MANAGER:LOGNAME047.COM

or

$ RUN/UIC=[47,0]/INPUT=SYS$MANAGER:LOGNAME047.COM/OUTPUT=NL: SYS$SYSTEM:LOGINOUT

     The first meathod requires a bogus account with all the right privs (in
this case "GROUP47") that has to be created (unless you want to charge your
users for things run during system startup and give them privs that they may not
need.).  The second meathod allows you to specify a uic that nobody owns, and
thus nobody gets charged or gets privs that they don't need and you don't have
bogus accounts sitting about (i.e. it's much cleaner).  In the system managers
class that I took, the instructor recommended the RUN meathod of generating
logical names for these reasons.
