Hi all,

suddenly my environment(is doesn't matter if bash, sh or ksh, in a 7.1 
2.4.2-2 kernel) doesn't pass the value of current shell variables to 
sub-shells or scripts. The only way to make it works is using '# . 
my-shell'. If I run only '# my-shell', all variables in current shell are 
not set or available in the sub-shell.
The normal behavior for me is that a '.' is used to inherit sub-shell 
variables values by the current shell(example, to set an Oracle version 8 
environment when already logged in, I issue the command '. setora8'), and my 
environment seems now to do just the opposite!
What' changed? I have no way to know, because this box was lended to a 
customer and, as it came back, the shell behavior changed. All the scripts I 
have doesn't work anymore(only if I change 'script' to '. script'. Isn't it 
weird?! Sorry, for me it's. I didn't see this before.

Can you help me?

TIA

Roberto Bories
