Re: setenv missing
bash: setenv : command not found setenv is a C-shell builtin. I guess, that you have probably set a C-shell variant as your login in shell, but didn't wrote 'su -'. My suggestion: Change your login shell to bash (chsh -s /bin/bash) and try again. David -- David Frey [EMAIL PROTECTED] |Microsoft isn't the answer...it's the QUESTION.

Re: setenv missing
Hi Neil, Can someone kindly point me in the right direction to solve a niggling problem, When I do a `su' command bash comes up with an error message, bash: setenv : command not found I have a man page for setenv which refers to stdlib.h, this I have in, `/usr/include/bsd/stdlib.h' and `/usr/include/stdlib.h' but I cannot find setenv etc on my system, and when I am in in a child shell my path is unknown. The kernel is custom 2.0.6 and mostly modular. There is no setenv binary. It is built into (t)csh and for bash you have to use the builtin 'export'. The manpage is about a library function of that name (which you cannot use from your shell). If your su command fails this is an error (in su?). So you should check, what su is (use the 'type' command from bash, 'which' from (t)csh). Hope I could help.
