- Cathy,
-
- It seems to vary from root disk to root disk. Try ".bash_profile" on
- Jim Winstead's root, though you may have to change your shell name in
- /etc/passwd to "bash" instead of "sh". On MCC, I'm not sure.
-
- The profile should be in your home directory, which is "/" on Winstead's
- root, and may be something else on MCC, I can't remember....check
- "/etc/passwd", your mileage may vary.... [sighrin]
