Hi! When my root's shell is `/bin/bash' in the /etc/passwd file, and I do `su' as a simple user, then the root's .profile (/root/.profile) gets executed. After setting the root's shell to `/bin/sh', and do `su' as a simple user, then the root's .profile doesn't get executed until i run su as `su -'. My /bin/sh is a symlink to /bin/bash.
ps.: I can tell if the .profile is used or not from the prompt (I have the PS1 variable set in the .profile file). Thanks! Daniel -- LeVA -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
