I get confused with this all the time. It seems to be shifting.... I currently run SUES7, SUSE8, SUSE9 31 bit and SUSE9 64 bit.
On SUSE9 64 bit, /etc/profile.local should be used for any "global" changes that will apply to all users. A separate .bash_profile is used for each user. I finally got in the habbit of any time I make changes or create a 'profile', I put in an "echo .bash_profile" in it, just to make sure I am, indeed, executing it. I've seen Oracle manuals that said to do an "echo $SHELL", and when it came back as "bash", add lines to your ".profile" file. I tried the ".profile" and it doesn't get executed. So, it seems to me that something has been changing. Tom Duerbusch THD Consulting >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 11/15/05 1:16 AM >>> Hi,all I use SLES9 on zSeries.
