Have a look at ~/.bash_profile (where ~ is the user's home dir). Look for these lines: # include .bashrc if it exists if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then . ~/.bashrc fi It should look like what I have pasted above. If the if ... fi statement is commented out, uncomment it. Otherwise, .bash_profile will be run, but .bashrc won't.
