You can not pre-empt the system supplied sign-on programs, for the IBM supplied 
attach points - you only get (mostly) the 'after the event' by utilising the 
defined exit points.

The exit points are your only method of having something executed (i.e. the 
exit point program *you* write and register for that exit point) at that 
particular moment in time.

However, if you have the time you can of course write your own FTP, TELNET 
(TN5250E), etc. servers yourself. Disable the IBM supplied ones and run your 
ones on those ports. Many people have written (including myself for BPCS 6.02 
CS and above) their own custom connection servers that provides log-on 
facilities for their own software applications.

The only one you will not be able to 'mirror' will be the standard twinax 
terminal (and APPN) way of connecting; you can change the look of sign-on 
screen, but not the underlying program that is called.
