Gentlemen, I wish to add a simple callbook server on the local node and find the QRZ cdrom adequate. My problem is the environment requires QRZPATH=/whatever/i/decide I added this to /etc/profile which works fine for all but those connected through Linuxnode, which, when QRZ is called, says the environment variable needs to be set. How do I set the environment before login? or... The question is: Can I set the environment var for the entire system before /etc/profile is read or is it easier (or required) to start the node software in rc.local from a script like this: rc.local: ... /bin/node.script ... #!/bin/sh #export QRZPATH=/whatever/i/decide # #exec /all/the/node/stuff # This is probably another UNIX newbie question. Hopefully the question makes sense :-) Sincerely, JC [EMAIL PROTECTED]
