Thanks Steve and Joao. I found I had to change two lines in my texmf.cnf
file. First, I had to add the line:

'HOMETEXMF = $HOME/texmf'

There is also a line in my file that was:

TEXMF = !!$TEXMFMAIN

I changed this to:

TEXMF = {!!$TEXMFMAIN,!!$HOMETEXMF}

This is still not a perfect solution. In order to work my tutorial, the
user has to add a bst file to his/her texmf directory. What if the user
does not have root privelege? 

If the user does not have root privelege, he/she can't change the
texmf.cnf file. If the administrator adds a local texmf file for
him/her, then there is still a problem. In order to reconfigure things
for TeX, you have to run texhash as *root.*

I suppose there is no way around this. I guess most LyX users have root
permission?

Thanks

Paul
