    TL> Does Mystic create a semaphore (or some other flag) when a new user is   
    TL> created? I'm asking because I need to invoke an external process after   
    TL> new users are cre ated. I could just have my tool read the user.dat   
    TL> file after each log off but w as wondering if there was a more gracefull   
    TL> solution.   
      
   You could use a small MPL script to do whatever you want on their first call:   
      
   Uses USER   
      
   Begin   
    GetThisUser   
       
    If UserLastOn = 0 Then   
    WriteLn('This is my first call! Press a key|PN');   
   End   
      
   I could probably make an ACS flag for their first call too if desired.. Maybe   
   "OC" could return true if its their first call
