Well I can appreciate having separate profiles for sh and bash. I have cron jobs and cgi scripts that need a certain consistent environment that differs from the environment used for development. But the problem is I cannot seem to locate the mechanism to trigger all shells derived from a user logon to be logon shells. Such a mechanism must exist or there would be no point in having separate profiles. Or perhaps disperate packagers are not coordinating? Mike -- Greedo shoots first?
