Re: path
Thanks for the suggestion, but it doesn't work. It seems Mandrake handles the path differently. I'm attaching /etc/profile. Notice that at the end of the file I added the PATH line. I also put in an ECHO so I'd know if it was working. I do get the echo and the path **seems** to now include the added directory I wanted. But, when I type **echo $PATH** in a terminal window (after seeing the echoed line), the path **does not** include my directory. Another strange thing is that in the original Mandrake /etc/profile there's another PATH line (5 lines before the end). This line adds /usr/games to the path, but also has no effect.

Re: Permission for users to read/write on fat32
Edit your /etc/fstab file. you'll have there something like /dev/hda1 /win vfat defaults add uid=userid,umask=077 - that user will have read/write access to that partition. the rest wont be able to read or write. if you want to give access for more then one user you might want to use 'gid' instead and create special group for that (ie. staff). example: /dev/hda1 /win vfat defaults,uid=1000,umask=077 10 man fstab.

How do I add a directory to the PATH? I want to add a directory that contains all sorts of scripts I use regularly. I tried: PATH=$PATH:/data1/perl; export PATH but that only adds the directory to the terminal session I'm in - I want this **always** added to the path when I boot.

Re: path
I already tried that and it didn't work either. I get the same **symptom**. The echo command in /etc/profile or /etc/bashrc seem to show that the directory has been added to the path, but **echo $PATH** at the prompt shows the path has not changed.

Re: path
Check your ~/.*bash* files. maybe one of them reset PATH. (~/.bashrc, ~/.bash_profile). On Thu, 23 Nov 2000 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I already tried that and it didn't work either.

Re: path
That was the problem. Thanks for your patience. So now I have two questions: 1 - Is there a good tutorial or reference where I should have looked for this? I spent alot of time looking before I posted the question, but didn't find the answer. In the **good old days** of DOS I would have found the solution with very little effort. :-) 2 - Can you see any reason to put a PATH command in /root/.bashrc where it overwrites the default in etc/profile? I suppose I could have added the directory I wanted there, but instead I deleted the PATH command so the default path from /etc/profile would take effect. It seems to me that the whole point of having config files in /etc is to keep them all in one convenient location. Only special changes should be done elsewhere.

It's strange you and all the people who answered you missed the obvious answer - the manpage you're looking for is netrc(5)!!! (see 'man netrc').

Inthe **good old days** of DOS I would have found the solution with very little effort. :-) As for a reference: the man page, of course. You can find that right in the INVOCATION section of the man page for bash. Theere is a package in mandrake (and probably other distros as well. Haven't checked) called bash-doc which contains extra documantation about bash, but I suppose that's mostly about scripts. You probably also noticed the /etc/profile.d directory, which is used (at least on mandrake) as a place for seperate packages to put their own init scripts (which saves them the need of editing /etc/profile and /etc/csh.login just to add an extra directory to a certain PATH. 2 - Can you see any reason to put a PATH command in /root/.bashrc where it overwrites the default in etc/profile?

It seems to me that the whole point of having config files in /etc is to keep them all in one convenient location. Only special changes should be done elsewhere. root is not just a user like anyone else. For instance, maybe some special care has to be taken so that the root account can function correctly when /usr is not availble. Or maybe you don't want to expose root's PATH to whatever was added in the PATH by some /etc/profile.d script (those two are just speculations). -- Tzafrir Cohen mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.technion.ac.il/~tzafrir = To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
