I use sudoers.
Hmmm, I am failing to see the relevance of your reply. Perhaps you were thinking that .bashrc is only used for login shells? No, it's for interactive NON-login shells, per bash(1) manual, INVOCATION: "When an interactive shell that is not a login shell is started, bash reads and executes commands from ~/.bashrc, if that file exists." Okay, so there is relevance, but probably not what you thought. :) SBo recommends the use of login shells, so indeed my reference to /root/.bashrc was incorrect. (IWFM because I source .bashrc from my ~/.profile file.) A better place for OUTPUT might be in "/root/.bash_login". -- Rob McGee - /dev/rob0 - r...@slackbuilds.org _______________________________________________ SlackBuilds-users mailing list SlackBuilds-users@slackbuilds.org http://lists.slackbuilds.org/mailman/listinfo/slackbuilds-users Archives - http://lists.slackbuilds.org/pipermail/slackbuilds-users/ FAQ - http://slackbuilds.org/faq/
