[mod.computers.vax] SMG, operator messages, and security

WARNOCK@clemson.CSNET.UUCP (02/21/87)

Why won't SMG trap broadcast messages of the SECURITY class (or, what am I
doing wrong ?)  I'm using SMG$GET_BROADCAST_MESSAGE, etc. All is coded
correctly, all necessary privs are enabled, etc. It works fine for ALL messages
EXCEPT security ones. (YES, I have SECURITY and OPER privs enabled).  The
messages DO show up on the screen, except when the application program is
running. 

Any thoughts ?  Is this a know *feature* (BUG) ?

On a similar subject, does anyone know how to read the OPCOM mailbox to
retrieve OPER messages ?  (I've asked this before, worded somewhat differently,
with no response...) 

Thanks.
