The following has been tried on OpenSUSE 10.2 and Mac OS X 10.4.11. When run by sshd, bash doesn't behave consistently: 1. bash sources the init files when one uses "ssh <host> <cmd>". 2. bash doesn't do that when one uses "ssh -t <host> <cmd>".
According to the bash man page, (1) is correct and (2) is incorrect (sshd is the remote shell daemon nowadays). But according to the CHANGES and COMPAT files, this is the converse. Note that Debian doesn't have this problem, probably because SSH_SOURCE_BASHRC is uncommented (see README.Debian.gz). Concerning OpenSUSE, I had reported a bug here: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=345570 -- Vincent Lefèvre <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.org/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <http://www.vinc17.org/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / Arenaire project (LIP, ENS-Lyon)
