it depends on what you are using for your shell. bash (or related): export JAVA_HOME=/usr/bin csh (or relatives): setenv JAVA_HOME /usr/bin If you don't know which shell you are using, try them both. Only one will work. The above only makes it temporary for that login, so if you want to make it permanent you can edit the resource files to add the working line from above to: /etc/profile, for bash /etc/csh.cshrc, for csh Let us know if you have and troubles with that. -kdf _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/unix
